Get your taxes done using TurboTax

I had reviewed the post you shared prior to my initial post and it is very informative.  However, while it explains the tax treatment, it does not explain how to enter the transaction in Turbo Tax.

 

I did sell the stock and have held it for over three years.  I entered the capital gain from the information in the 1099-B and my employer reported the purchase discount on my W2 box 14.  I entered the amount from box 14 when I entered my W2 information.  There was no obvious code to report the SSPP discount so I selected miscellaneous.  This amount did not flow though to schedule 1 or the 1040.  Hence my question on the correct way to enter the information in Turbo Tax.  Short of manually entering it on schedule 1 is there a recommended way to enter this transaction?
