Have entered under wages/income - but final review throws error due to no value in Box 1 Gross Distribution. So do I even need to include since was just rolled into another Roth IRA?

You do not have to report the 1099-R with the Roth 401k cost basis information (Box 5) only. You can delete the entry from TurboTax so that you can e-file the return.
