If you go back to that input where you checked the box and left the box blank, then press F1 while on the blank box you should see: 

  Electronic payment date [O]

Direct Deposit of Refund (8050) / Electronic PaymentScreen 4; Code 88

The program uses the return due date for the electronic payment date for returns filed before the return due date. The electronic payment day will be the transmission date for returns filed after the return due date.

Enter the date, in mm/dd/yy format, if you want the debit of the electronic payment to take place before the return due date. When the return is filed before the due date, do not enter a date later than the return due date. The IRS e-file program does not allow the electronic payment date to delay the return due date for holidays. If the taxpayer’s bank is closed for a specific holiday, the electronic payment will be withdrawn the next business day.

For returns transmitted to the IRS after the return due date, the requested payment date cannot be later than the transmission date. The electronic payment date should be the same date as the date of transmission.
