Appears only 1099-R with IRA Box 7 checked are being picked up one Line 4a. This appears to be not consistent with IRS instructions for Line 4a which appear to want the sum of all 1099-R Box 1 (regardless of IRA, pension or annuity). TT error appears to be a transition error from the old 1040 method of handling separate lines for IRA's and pensions. TT worksheets have not been updated to 2018.

If you look at the 1040 worksheet, you see that TurboTax is still separating IRA's from pensions and annuities, even though the 1040 no longer does that. If you have distributions from multiple payers, they are doing it wrong. Here is what the new IRS 1040 instructions say: "More than one distribution. If you (or your spouse if filing jointly) received more than one distribution, figure the taxable amount of each distribution and enter the total of the taxable amounts on line 4b. Enter the total amount of those distributions on line 4a." So, if more than one, the total of ALL distributions should appear on 4a. I think Intuit has been told about this problem.
