Taxable Roth Distribution?

A client has an early distribution from a Roth IRA. I've entered $0 taxable in box 2, Dist code J, and check-marked Roth IRA, but it is included on the 1040 line 4 as taxable income, (in addition to the 10% early withdrawal penalty). Is this a ProSeries Basic error, or am I missing something?

Do you have the clients basis entered? It's probably picking it up as income because there is no basis entered.
