Client put in after tax contributions to a 401(k) of $30k. Now trying to roll that into a ROTH IRA as a distribution from the 401k. For a normal IRA transfer I would put in basis info and they system handles it. Can't figure out how to reflect correctly so he gets credit for the basis in the after-tax 401(k) contribution. Don't want to get a matching notice from the IRS if I just remove the taxable amount from the input.

Was it all post-tax, or was there an amount from pre-tax and/or earnings?

Here is the help article:
The 1099-R has a value in Box 2a and you don't agree with it? Why would it be wrong? Did you enter the post-tax contribution basis for Box 5?
Here's a picture for mega backdoor Roth, to match that one against:

See if that helps.
