Roth IRA conversion from RMD and Roth Conversion from Rollover IRA

I converted a portion of Rollover IRA to Roth Ira. Later I converted another portion from the Rollover IRA to Roth. Fidelity lumped both on Form 1099-R. Do I have to report this last conversion separately? Use another Turbo Tax form?

These would normally be entered as a single combined rollover.

 

However, you said "Roth IRA conversion from RMD."  RMDs are not eligible for conversion to Roth.  If an RMD from the rollover IRA was deposited into a Roth IRA, that portion must be entered as an ordinary Roth IRA contribution, not a rollover.  In that case, you must repot as converted to Roth only the portion that was not RMD.
