Tax reporting 1031 property donated to a charitable trust

We had a 1031 Exchange rental property which we donated/transferred to a charitable trust as a 1031 exchange.  The property was then sold (we handled that) so the charitable trust actually received cash from the sale.  It sold for less than the appraised market value.  How do we report this transaction since the exchange was not to another property.  Questions in TurboTax seem to be for property exchanges only.

Tax reporting 1031 property donated to a charitable trust

Doesn't the trust file its own return? A 1041? The sale has to be reported but the question is who reports it. One thing's for sure and that's that you didn't do another exchange if you or the trust received cash.

Tax reporting 1031 property donated to a charitable trust

I mean my question to ask how do I show in TurboTax that the 1031 exchange was given to a charitable trust (charity)?  It seems to want to be an exchange to be to a new property as my only option.  I need to close out the 1031 exchange; deal with that tax issue on depreciation taxes, etc.  A sale did occur so it was cash that went to the charity just after the gift of property.
