Trying to enter 199A info but the button to access does nothing

During the initial entry of the K1, I have a line 20 Z and there is no way to enter the information.  Several "continue" later there were fields to enter but one of the fields I had from my accountant was not asked for.  I saved it and the checking for errors flags I did not enter my 199A info.  Scrolling up I see a QuickZoom button to do so but the button does nothing.  This appears to be broken and I'm stuck not getting past the 20-Z part.  I did notice if I double click on the Amount field I get a poorly titled form.  I entered my info from my K1 but the checking for errors is still not happy.  What is the correct way to enter the 199A info and where?  The other help page showing this does not work.  This is all on the home PC version.
