Schedule A

Confused!! In 2018 I entered itemized deductions in turbotax schedule "A" which exceeded the stated standard deduction for my filing status in 2018. The resulting amount was entered on the 1040, but schedule "A" was not included in the forms printed. When starting my 2019 return it indicates schedule "a" wasn't used in 2018. How do I explain the amount of deductions in excess to the standard deduction on my 2018 return without a schedule "A". Do I go ahead and enter I didn't use schedule "A" last year even though I claimed deductions in excess of the standard?
