Capital Gain Reporting

It would be helpful in reviewing complex returns to have each brokerage account assigned to its own Disposition worksheet for input and reporting. This allows a simpler audit of activity by account.

Can you clarify?  You can use a separate 1099-B worksheet for each account.

Unless I am missing something, the Schedule D does not let you put in a "Schwab Account" with all the transactions, then a "Merrill Account" with those transactions, etc.. inside the client's current year tax file. If it does, let me know how that is accomplished. The "Add" button only lets me add a transaction -- not a separate account.

It would all be on one Schedule D because that is what the IRS requires.  But you can enter them on separate 1099-B worksheets to see it all separated that way.
