Yes, thank goodness that is an option. Otherwise I'd have 2000+ transactions. I have had that many transactions for other years and turbo tax has handled it fine. There are many folks who have used turbotax year after year and are also having difficulty this year. I won't be able to trust it next year, so will probably have to look for an alternate solution.
I can only enter numbers as large as 9,999,999.99. 2000+ transactions adds up to millions. That's not million in profits, just millions in sales, with the same money over and over again. I have to hand enter 45 sales to "summarize" this.
I buy TurboTax on purpose to handle the short term sales. It has cost me an entire week of trouble shooting. I have wasted so much time on support that doesn't solve the problem. I have received information on how to accurately summarize the sales and that's nice to feel confident that the IRS allows that, but it would be nicer if the software did what the software claims to do. It has handled my same large data imports in other years. This year, the software definitely has a problem. And TurboTax being blank with no technical support phone support, and no technical resolution to this, basically implies that TurboTax isn't intended as a tax solution for those of us in these situations, so we will be force to move on to other software that supports active trading and can handle large data imports. Thank you for the reply all the same.
