How do I edit the amount on line 18 of 1040x? Its showing that I received a refund from the IRS that due to an error I will not be getting.

IRS has sent me a CP23 but it didn't include an amendment I need to make for QBI. Turbotax is now allowing me to zero out the refund that I won't be getting. Instead of owing $587, its showing $4614 (which includes the refund amount).

Since 1040 and 1040-X are processed separately you should expect the refund shown on Form 1040.

That's why it is appearing on your 1040-X which will take several months to process.

I assume you meant to say "not allowing" rather than "now allowing"

this is one reason why an amended return should not be submitted until the original is fully processed - you get your refund. it is not possible to know if the IRS will process your amended return in time to prevent the refund as originally shown.
