Does 401k rollover count as "contribution"?

[LeoLA1]

I did a rollover from a 401k to a traditional IRA. I received a 1099-R, which I entered as Income. In the "Deductions" section, should I also include this as a "contribution" or not?

No.  A rollover is money your already have in a retirement account being placed in a different retirement account.  A contribution is using 'new' funds to deposit in a retirement account.  These funds were never in a retirement account and you are increasing the balance of your retirement funds when you contribute.  You do not increase the amount of your retirement funds when you rollover to a different account.
