"so I don't believe I can do a summary for the full 1099."
Yes, that's correct. You can do summaries though for long term non-covered, long term covered, and short term covered. It sounds like you do have all the information needed. One question though: the Qualified Dispositions - stocks held more than 2 years from the grant date and more than 1 year from the purchase date - have a different calculation of "compensation" (if any) than Disqualifying Dispositions. Has that portion of your basis been calculated correctly?
Assuming everything is copacetic you can enter the long-term non-covered sales directly into the default 1099-B interview, supplying your basis number. For the covered sales enter the 1099-B exactly as it reads - wrong basis and all - and then correct the basis using the mechanism provided within the default 1099-B interview.
There's various ways you can now report the compensation and here's one way:*
Starting the "Miscellaneous Income, 1099-A, 11099-C" interview.
Starting the "Other income not already reported on a Form W-2 or Form 1099" interview.
Answering "Yes" on the "Other Wages Received" page.
Entering $0 on the "Wages Earned as a Household Employee" page.
Entering $0 on the "Sick or Disability Pay" page.
Answering "Yes" on the "Any Other Earned Income" page.
Ticking "Other" on the "Enter Source of Other Earned Income" page.
Entering a description and an amount on the "Any Other Earned Income" page.
*I've largely stepped away from answering tax questions in here so I haven't actually tried this method this year. It's always worked in the past just fine, but be sure to check.
