IRA to ROTH conversion (involving QCD and non-deductible IRA portion)

[bobreb451]

Entering my 1099-R information for an IRA distribution which included for QCD for more than the required RMD, and a non-deductible IRA portion, and an IRA to ROTH conversion, the software is not asking if and how much of my IRA was converted to Roth, so instead of putting the converted amount on form 8606 line 8, it is putting some (?) amount on line 7.  I did a QCD for an amount greater than the RMD and everything else was converted to my ROTH IRA. (8606 line 7 says Do Not Entered IRA to ROTH conversions on line 7, but there it is because it never asked if I did a conversion or split the money between a conversion and distribution. Questions that previous TurboTax years always asked).  Please figure out why it's not asking or calculating correctly.  Thank You

You should get a question what did you do with the money in the follow-up question if you withdrew more than the RMD. Please note, RMDs cannot be rolled over or converted. You might have to review your RMD answers.
