If box 16 is blank on a 1099R why won't it accept that answer?

If you don't have any taxes withheld in box 14, leave boxes 14,15 and 16 empty. If Box 14 shows State Tax withheld,  enter the amount from Box 2a.

Anything in box 14? If not then leave boxes 14, 15 & 16 blank, no spaces. If you have withholding in box 14 then enter the same amount as in box 1.
