T5008 Enter the transaction date Caution

With the back and forth of capital gains this year, we have T5008s and a “Caution” saying to enter the Transaction Date on the T5008s being imported. I note that these do not populate from Autofill. Are these a required manual entry on each T5008 transaction even though they are reversing their position?

I can’t see how it matters in the end.

I aggregate them and report a single amount. Easy to add a date. :slight_smile:

I’m with OP @CGLtax. I’m having T5008 rage today.

This morning it’s the difference between:

(1) Click “clear review” checkmark 306 times.

(2) Delete 305 T5008’s, stop, and edit the final T5008 to the original aggregate gain/loss amounts.

This is dumb. The T5008 numbers AFR’d are all correct. The gain/loss amount flowing to the S3 is correct.

Why am I wasting time re-entering data (aggregating), when it would be fine as-is, save for the hundreds of unnecessary date queries.

We just turned off the caution in the TaxCycle Options. :wink:
