Schedule A itemized deductions are not showing up on 1040

The itemized deductions on Schedule A are not showing up on the 1040 and they are more than the standard deduction. What do I need to do to correct this?

Did you click on the box to take the $ 300 above the line charitable contribution?  You don't get to do both.

I sure did and I figured it out right after I posted. The taxpayer originally qualified for the standard deduction then came up with a few more write offs and I forgot to uncheck that box. Thank you for your reply!

I'm not fond of how Intuit is handling/presenting this.... oh, well.
