In the section for reporting the stock sale for box 1b select Something other than a date and then Various

You may have to first split the sale into 2 sales.  One for Long Term shares and Short Term.

using various as acquisition date would require you to indicate whether the holding period for each is long-term (more than 1 year) or short-term.
