Yes, you are correct.  A form 1099-MISC does not have a distribution code box.  Be sure you are entering the 1099-Misc in the correct interview area.  Typically a form 1099-MISC is entered using the "Other Common Income" topic.

 

Confirm the form number you are entering so that you can get to the correct interview area for that form.  Next, if the box 7 on your form (typically a 1099-R) is for a distribution code and it is blank, you should contact the issuer to get a corrected form with the proper distribution code.
