You'll need your vendor tax ID, @julie-miller.

 

QuickBooks is in compliance with the IRS when filing the 1099 form. You'll want to enter your vendor tax ID when filing the 1099 to avoid errors and delays.

 

To set up your vendor for 1099 in your QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT):

  1. Go to the Vendors menu and select Vendor Center.
  2. Select the desired vendor and click the Tax Settings section in the Edit Vendor window.
  3. Enter the Tax ID of your vendor in the VENDOR TAX ID field and ensure to put a check in the Vendor eligible for 1099 checkbox, then click OK2.PNG

Then to map the accounts:

  1. Go to the Vendors menu and select Print/E-file 1099s and click 1099 Wizard.
  2. Click get Started and click Continue to open the Map vendor payment accounts page.

I got you this article for more details: Prepare and file 1099s with QuickBooks Desktop.

 

I also recommend consulting with your accountant for guidance if you're unsure on which account to use. That way, we'll ensure the accuracy of data entered in your 1099.
