You enter the 1099R. After you enter form 1099-R keep going. If you have entered a birth date which makes you older than 70 1/2 there will be a page that asks Do any of these situations apply? Midway down is Were any of these funds sent directly to a charity? Then it will ask for the amount.
The code in box 7 of form 1099-R must be 7 and the little IRA/SEP/SIMPLE box must be checked. A IRA QCD should be 0 taxable on 1040 line 4b and the QCD box checked. Unless you have other 1099R taxable amounts on 4b. You can’t do a QCD from a 401K.
If you are looking at a summary screen or review screen those show the full amount as income and lump a lot of stuff together. You need to check the actual 1040 form and make sure it's right. Check lines 4b & 5b for any taxable amounts.
