Form 1040X - how do I input that the client already received their refund and now has a balance due as opposed to receiving a smaller additional refund

I prepared a 1040X to add additional income and withholding. The 1040X correctly reflects an additional tax due. The cover letter (and info worksheet) states that the client is getting a refund (just a smaller amount than the original return)  But my client has already received the original refund and now has to return a portion/ balance due (as shown on the 1040X).  How do I reflect that the refund has already been received so as not to receive an additional but smaller refund?  Thank you.

Take a look at line 16, and 18 on the 1040X
