Under Income  > Wages, Salaries, Tips (W-2), if you scroll to the "State and Local" section, enter the correct amount of NJ wages on (16) State wages, if different, and, very importantly, code it to NJ in the dropdown box to the right, that amount should flow to NJ-1040 Line 15.  I just tried and it works.

Please come back with more details if you still have problems.
