Get your taxes done using TurboTax
When you put the profit sharing distribution in a traditional IRA, assuming it was done within the 60 day limit, that was a tax free rollover. A traditional IRA can have both pre-tax and after tax funds in it. If you don't want that to be a tax free rollover, then you just don't tell the program that you rolled it over to an IRA. That will make it a taxable distribution. If you are not yet 50 1/2 years old, you will also have to pay a 10% penalty (excise tax) on the full amount of the distribution. If you don't want it to be a taxable distribution, indicate after entering the 1099-R that you rolled it over to an IRA.
When you rolled the funds into a Roth IRA, it was a Roth Conversion. How that is taxed depends on whether you treat the distribution from the profit sharing as taxable or non-taxable. You're going to pay tax on the distribution, it's just a question of which transaction you treat as taxable.
