OH State Taxes were rejected. How do I correct? Why doesn't Intuit take me directly to problem that needs correcting?

Intuit says "Let's Correct Now." It only gives me an explanation how to correct which I don't understand. Why doesn't TurbTax take me directly to the problem that needs correcting instead of giving me an explanation I don't understand?

What is the rejection code?

REJ001

[smh090871]

Sorry. That may not be the rejection code. They show this as the rejection code:  OHCOM-012

[SweetieJean]

OHCOM-012. This code generally indicates that the state section of the W-2 is not entered in the format that Ohio requires.  
 
Also make sure that the amount you entered in the state section SD-100 has been rounded to the nearest dollar. and does not have a decimal followed by cents.

You apparently have to go back to your Federal Return, and change box 20 on the W-2 to the number of your school district.

Can I do that if my federal was already excepted by the IRS?

[SweetieJean]

@Critter#2 Can you answer?

[Critter]

Yes you can since it doesn't effect the federal return.

Thank you so much! I think I finally found where to go. You all have been extremely helpful. So sorry for the many questions. I have never had this much trouble doing my taxes before. Thank you again!
