Charitable contributions

This instruction from FAQs does not work for me.  I cannot find a checkbox, only an override amount.  Anybody else experienced this?

  1. Mark the checkbox labeled Deduct cash charitable contributions if taking the standard deduction (forces the standard deduction).

Thank you

That was a box for 2020, it does not exist this year. 

The process is automatic for 2021 The input now reads: "Cash contributions (Click on button to expand) (automated for itemized versus standard deduction)"
