QBI Loss carryforward

Does anyone know the screen where I enter a carryforward loss to reduce the QBI deduction in the current year?

For future reference, Lacerte has this snifty feature:
Go to where you expect the info/amount to appear. Right click on that field, then click on "jump to input". That will *usually* take you to where you to input the info (or give you the various options when there are multiple places).

I'm not sure it works on F 8995 or not.

 Sch C?

Left side, under 'Sections', then under 'Prior Year Unallowed  Passive Losses.   Then down a bit to QBI.

Individual program. Screen 15 NOL.  Cur. Yr NOL / Misc.  At the bottom of the screen see Qualified Business Loss Carryovers.

Can't make this work for the carryover to appear on Form 8995 line 3.  I did not prepare last year's return, so need to enter.  It appears as an NOL c/o, not QBI c/o, even though I am selecting QB Loss Carryover on the bottom left.  How do I differentiate between entering an NOL c/o and a QB c/o?
