Mutliple Wash sales entry..

Typically I enter each wash sale on the 1099-B worksheet.

Now I have a situation where I've already see 26 and am not yet done counting.  All the transactions have a reported basis.   

What's a way to work around this?   Do some of you just enter a total?

I haven't had a client with any large wash sales so I have just entered a one total.

There is no requirement to enter each one individually. You can use something like Short-Term Covered Sales with a 12/31/24 date for sale and Various for purchase, then put in grand total for sales price, cost basis and wash sales. Note, this doesn't work for accrued market discount items. Those have to be entered individually.
