If you sell a rental property, that will need to be entered in the Schedule E section, with the other rental information. There is another place in TurboTax to enter a Form 1099-S, but that is for other kinds of property.
The key will be when you get to the screen Tell us about your situation this year Check the Sold box, along with any other boxes which apply. This will prompt you later for details about the sale. You will use the information from the Form 1099-S to fill out that section but it is not entered directly.

I sold a lot beside a house I am renting. I received a 1099S form for the amount I received for the lot. BUT the lot was worth $17000 and I sold it for $10000. Do I get to take a loss on this lot? Also where do I enter the 1099S on my tax form. I am using the desktop version of Turbo Tax.
I SOLD A LOT BESIDE A RENTAL PROPERTY THAT I OWE. IT WAS SOLD FOR $7000 LESS THAN THE ACTUAL PRICE. I RECEIVED A 1099S FOR THE $10000. WHERE DO I ENTER THE 1099S? AND WILL I GET A DEPRECIATION FOR THE $7000 ANYWHERE?
The sale of land is considered an investment sale. If all you sold was the land (no structures or buildings on it where depreciation expense was used as part of your rental activity) you will report it as follows.
Also, if this portion of land was included in the rental home asset, be sure to change the cost of the land for the rental. If you never added the cost of the particular parcel of land to the rental building information there is nothing to do in the rental portion of your return.
Land sales are reported by using the following instruction.
Since the lot was not rented or used for business, the loss on sale of it would be a capital loss, the aggregate of which is limited to $3,000 per year on your tax return.
You would report it as an investment sale as follows:
While in the Federal section of TurboTax:
1. Income and Expenses
2. Investment Income
3. Stocks, Cryptocurrency, Mutual Funds, Bonds, Other (1099-B)
Choose the category of investment you want to enter and follow the instructions to enter your investment sale.

It depends. What did you sell to receive the Form 1099-S?
As mentioned by DoninGA, where you enter the information reported on your Form 1099-S depends on what property was sold and reported on the form.
Take a look at the following TurboTax help article for some additional guidance and instructions on what to do if you sold your main home or another type of real estate:
