I can help you map your vendor payment accounts, @Kgerome.
You can omit the rent expense when applying payments to the 1099 box.
Let me show you how:
- Go to the Vendors menu and then select Print/E-file 1099s.
- Select the 1099 Wizard, then select Get Started.
- On Map vendor payment accounts page, look for this Rent expense and select Omit these payments from 1099 from the Apply payments to this 1099 box drop-down.
- Click on Continue to review payments for exclusions and to confirm your 1099 entries.
- Choose Save & Close once you're done.
