T4 - error because box 16 is empty

I have two T4's from the same employer (switched jobs with different payment options). One one T4, there is a value in box 16 which I enter.  For the second T4, box 16 is empty but I have a value in box 16a. TurboTax does not allow this, and won't allow me to save the second T4 and continue.

Can you check your T4's on CRA  and verify? If correct why not claim the 16a on the 1st T4 and leave it out of the second? You are reporting everything on your T4s. Correct itemization is just a plus.
