My imported 1099-b shows "VARIOUS" for the holding period in the Quick Entry Table for the Capital Asset Sales Worksheet. The "Sale Results" table can't assign the S/L code column, but the summary table breaks short and long term sales down correctly. Everything seems to flow onto 8949 and Schedule D, etc. correctly, but the missing S/L code triggers an error for every sale that prevents me from e-filing. If I delete the worksheet, everything that depends on it gets messed up. Is there some way to lock the 8949 and then delete the worksheet? Do I have to override all the dependent values manually? Do I have to manually enter all the sales broken into short and long-term? Is there some way to tell TurboTax that the error is ignorable?
'Various' won't work for a purchase date on an individual transaction. And there is no way for you to override those errors. You may be better off deleting your import and entering summary totals for your transactions and then submitting your broker statement.
