extension with online payment

Client made Federal extension payment at IRS.gov.  IRS instructions say don't file (or efile) the 4868 form - the payment will act as the (approved) extension request.  How do I report that on ProSeries so I don't get an error when we eventually e-file?  Note that client is leaving the country for an extended vacation up until 4/15 so we had to deal with the extension now - in case you're wondering!  I'm leaning toward e-filing the 4968 anyway just to cover the bases?  Thanks!

I  efile the 4868s when extension payments are done by IRS Direct Pay. 

 It's my CYA process.
