No.  If all items were sold at a loss, you do not need to list each item separately.   Since adding it and deleting it are not changing the amount that you owe or get back it sounds like it is being properly reported at the top of Schedule 1. When you get the message needs more information, does it show any red boxes?  Did you clear cache and cookies after deleting?      

 There are a few reasons why your refund is different than it was last year. Your income may have changed, your withholding may have changed, if you make estimated tax payments, they may be different than the year before.  Also, your credits and deductions may have changed.   Refer to the TurboTax article Why did my refund go down compared to last year's? for more information.

The offsetting entry is justified as it allows you to adjust the reported income to the correct amount. Your only other option would be to report the correct gross income, but that would likely invite more IRS scrutiny than making the adjustment.   @joeltax 

The HSA contributions are not counted as medical expenses.  Medical expenses can be deducted from your taxable income.  Health insurance premiums paid with after tax dollars can be claimed as expenses.  HSA contributions are paid with pre-tax dollars if done via payroll. You get a tax deduction (as HSA contributions) when the contributions are made outside payroll and reported on your tax return.  Because of this, the contributions are not deductible medical expenses. Additionally, expenses paid with an HSA distribution are also not education expenses. These are all paid with pre-tax dollars, so there is no deduction from taxable income.    New Jersey does not recognize HSA contributions as deductions and TurboTax will add the amount of the contributions shown on your W-2 to the state income shown in Box 16 when transferring your income to your New Jersey return.
