IRA to Roth conversion

Hello,

i did an IRA to Roth conversion for 50K.  The IRA is many years old.   i got a 1099R and entered the information in the wages and income section.   i did not have fidelity withhold any taxes.   i entered that the full 50K was put into a roth.     two questions...

1.   the program asks for total amount of all IRA accounts from Dec 31, 2024.  this has an impact on the final tax number.   i don't understand why.   

2.  do i need to enter anything in deductions and credits....traditional and Roth ira contributions?   i already highlighted it as a roth conversion in the wages and income section.    if i enter anything on roth, it states, i have a penalty.  under ira, it asks about a contribution.   since i did not make a contribution, just a withdrawl, its a bit confusing.   any help appreciated!!
