Should I add my self directed Roth IRA contributions to my 401(k) Roth IRA contributions when I report my total Roth IRA contributions in Turbo Tax?

[spudship]

This question pertains to the section of Turbo Tax in the Deductions and Credits section where it asks me to enter my total Roth IRA contributions for 2023.  My401(k) is a Qualified Retirement Program, and I am not sure whether the Roth money in my 401(k) should be added to my total Roth IRA contributions for 2023.

A 401(k) is not an IRA.  When TurboTax asks for your year-end balance in your Roth IRAs, enter only the amount in Roth IRAs and do not include any amount that is in the designated Roth account of your 401(k).
