It does seem that they made a change that increases confusion by indicating inappropriately on the page that asks how much RMD was required that the amount distributed was the RMD amount rather than the gross-distribution amount.  This change might have occurred with the 1/ 23/2025 update, but I haven't been following it closely.  There does not appear to have been a subsequent update.

 

It appears that an appropriate result is still possible by reporting the way that I have suggested previously:  Indicate the amount that was required to be taken is the amount of the particular distribution that actually went to satisfying RMDs, and, if some portion of the RMD for the individual's traditional IRA went unsatisfied, include that only on the entry of the Form 1099-R that includes the last traditional IRA distribution made that year (making the required amount for that account be the amount distributed plus the amount of RMD that was unsatisfied).  It seems that I have difficulty reproducing the symptom since I know what the software does with my entries, so I seem to just make entries that produce an appropriate result.
