Why is there an input area for 1099-MISC and 1099 NEC that does not flow to the return?

Called Lacerte one woman told my staff it worked on her end and we must have an outdated program.  I called Lacerte and was told the input for a 1099-MISC and 1099 NEC does not link to the return and you enter just the dollar amount on 14.1 other income.

(the NEC I was asking about does not relate to a schedule C) 

So why an input form that goes no where?
