How can I enter a direct rollover from one tax deferred retirement plan to another tax deferred retirement plan?

The Turbotax prompts are all concerning rollovers to Roth IRAs.

What TurboTax prompts are you talking about? They are not all for Roth IRAs.

What is the distribution code on your 1099-R?

In the screens after you enter the data for the 1099-R, eventually you will be asked, "what did [name] do with this money?"

Check "[name] moved the money to another retirement account."

Then in the new lines that appear, tell TurboTax if some or all of the distribution is a rollover to a traditional IRA or other retirement account. 

This will complete the rollover.

When entering a code-G Form 1099-R that reports a direct rollover and you answer No to both questions regarding rollovers to Roth accounts, TurboTax automatically treat the distribution as having been rolled over to a traditional account, no need for other questions.
