I need any suggestion or help regarding the entry (direct) to Sch D, from the Form 1099-B.
There are two transactions, both are long-term, but the first one on Form 1099-B stated that the basis is reported to the IRS, Report on Form 8949, Part II, with Box D checked.
The second long-term transaction's description on Form 1099-B shows that the basis is not reported to the IRS, Report on Form 8949, Part II with Box E checked.
Since there are only two transactions, I entered the details directly on the screen for Sch D, and for the second tansaction, I entered 1 for the basis NOT reported to the IRS.
When I reviewed Schedule D, the first one was recorded in 8a (basis reported to the IRS), not 8b (basis reported to the IRS, Box D checked). I had expected to see the first transaction in the line 8b.
The second transaction has been shown properly in the line 9 (for Box E checked).
You see, the first transaction wasn't in 8b, as I expected. Since ProConnect's input screen page doesn't have any other box or line to manually designate the Box D of Form 8949 Part II, I don't know how to show the first transaction in 8b of Sch D.
Does anybody have an idea or suggestion or the right answer to resolve this?
