Pensions not included in 1040 Line 4a? But is included in Line 4b. Line 4b should not be > 4a. Line 4a should be all 1099-R B1, Line 4b sum of Box 2a.

Appears only 1099-R with IRA Box 7 checked are being picked up one Line 4a. This appears to be not consistent with IRS instructions for Line 4a which appear to want the sum of all 1099-R Box 1 (regardless of IRA, pension or annuity). TT error appears to be a transition error from the old 1040 method of handling separate lines for IRA's and pensions. TT worksheets have not been updated to 2018.
