Broker shows various dates both on long term page and on short term page for same limited partnership. K-1 form only allows one entry date for buy and sell dates

If the statement just indicates various for either a buy or sell or both, just use a date that will generate LT or ST so it will agree with the 1099-B.

1099B shows both LT and ST for same LP. K-1 can only show ST or LT not both. I flip a coin.
