Why does Turbo Tax Business flag an error if my 1099-INT Box 10 value is 0?

[MaryK4]

TurboTax does not allow a zero for certain fields- it requires a blank field.  (It does not validate a forced zero).  To resolve this, leave the box blank instead of entering "0", or temporarily enter a small amount like $1 to bypass the error.

Thanks. Clearing the data for the box 10 field works. But this is surely a Turbo Tax bug. How do I go about reporting it, unless it was already reported?

In general, you should always leave any box blank, unless specifically instructed to enter a zero.
