That is where it recorded it at, but it still wanted the address several times, the name of the payee, the payees six digit number, and how money was handled.

As long as the information is showing correctly on the form and is reported on the 1040 Schedule 1 Part 1line 8z as JamesG1 stated above you have got it entered correctly!
