Needs review help for expired put options

TT suggests that you delete your full import and enter the summarized value instead. What it doesn't tell you that if you have 'Wash Sale' and you prefer to enter a summarized filing, you will need to mail your 1099-B within 3 days of your e-file is accepted.
How was able to bulk update all for all 'Need Review' contract that expired with 0 value. Here is what worked for me.

1. Select all contract that has expired with 0 value and TT marked them as 'Need Review'
2. Click on 'Bulk Update'
3. Choose the followings
- Investment Type (Option )
- Date acquired ( Choose Date,  Do not enter any value in the field, leave it empty)

- Sold ( Do not select expired, you sold your contract first and let it expired )

- Cost Basis  ( Enter 0 )

Save changes. The 'Need Review' will disappear with that update. Do cross check those transaction to verify if the updates are done properly.

Note: This worked for me doesn't necessarily mean it would work for you. It also depends how your broker provides the data to the import script. I was able to import 2 different brokers and use this workaround. Good Luck.
