You don't. Enter all your information. The program will tranfer all to Schedule D and Form 8949 where all calculations will take place. 

 

Use Form 8949 to reconcile amounts that were reported to you and the IRS on Form 1099-B or 1099-S (or substitute statement) with the amounts you report on your return. The subtotals from this form will then be  carried over to Schedule D (Form 1040), where gain or loss will be calculated in aggregate.
