Yes, if you are entering the net result you can use a negative sign in the proceeds box with a zero purchase price.
Keep all your statements with your tax records for future use should you need them for detail.

If you enter proceeds as $0 and then an amount for the cost you will have a negative amount for the overall gain/loss.
