Separating lines 5a and 5b in Form 1040

[dyons]

I have pension income, which would normally be recorded on line 5a of Form 1040, as it has in past years. This year, I also did a Roth conversion from my 401K. I would expect that to be recorded on Line 5b. However, after inputting the 1099-Rs exactly as received, I find that draft/preview Form 1040 shows line 5a as blank and puts everything (the sum of both the pension and the Roth conversion) in line 5b with the words "Rollover".

Why am I not able to see these two distinct items in their respective lines, 5a and 5b. Why is 5a blank? Surely my pension is not a rollover. I am concerned that this would be misleading, even though the final sum is correct, and may trigger an audit.

Any help would be appreciated.

That's ok.  If the taxable amount on 5b is the same as the gross distribution on 1099R box 1 then it doesn't show the amount on 5a.  5a is not important.  And it doesn't matter which amount is rolled over.
