Yes, you may claim the standard deduction in the federal return and itemize your Oregon deductions. In fact, if you enter itemized deductions in your federal return, your Oregon return will recognize that your itemized deductions are more than your standard deduction and generate an OR-A form in your Oregon return.
You can also look on your Oregon Form 40 and look at lines 16 & 17. Line 16 is the itemized deductions you recorded in your federal return and line 17 reports the Standard Deduction. Whichever line is largest is reported as a deduction on Line 18 of the Oregon Form 40.
