Retirement tax questions

After thinking about this some more, I think I would enter the the Roth 401(k) employee contribution, mark the Maximize box to allow TurboTax to calculate the maximum permissible employer contribution, then unmark the Maximize box and enter the employer contribution nowhere in TurboTax.  That would help ensure that you don't make an excess employer contribution while still treating the employer contribution as not being deductible.
