Enter the music at concert pitch in the key of E.
Change the key signature for the trumpet staff to Gb, transposing notes UP.
As a totally unasked aside -- the key signatures of transposed parts (in my opinion as a player of a transposing instrument AND as a conductor) should be in relationship to the key of the whole work, and not in an enharmonic key for ease of playing.
But it is possible to do what you want, as I have outlined above.

I turn to your collective wisdom for what I hope is a simple answer.
I am working on a piece for small ensemble in the E major concert key. How do I display the Bb trumpet part in Gb instead of F#?
