Filling out 1099-B, box 1c(2019) gives me error that: Cannot be before 01/01/2019, which causes box 1b (2017) to give the error Date acquired cannot be after date sold

I assume this is a bug on turbo tax for the 1099-B?
my 1b date is xx/yy/2017
My 1c date is xx/yy/2019

Bob 1c should be the date of sale or exchange. That can only be a date in 2019 as that is year of the return. Any earlier date will indeed return an error. Check to make sure you have selected the box below as a long term transaction.

The date is indeed in 2019 but it is saying that is has to be before 01/01/2019 for the sale.

It is also set as long term

 

Edit: manually typing in the numbers for the sale instead of copy paste worked.
