Good day, GoodJuju85.
I'd be happy to guide you through the steps on how to pay 1099 employees/contractors via direct deposit.
The first step is to set up your employee as a contractor for a direct deposit. I'll show you how to do it below:
- Open the Vendor Center.
- Double-click the vendor you wish add the direct deposit to.
- Select the Additional Info tab and select the Direct Deposit button.
- Choose the Use Direct Deposit for: [Vendor Name] box, and enter the bank info. Note: Split direct deposit payment isn't available for independent contractors.
- Click Send confirmation direct deposits to [email address] if you'd like a payment confirmation.
Here's an article for additional information on how to set up direct deposit: Set up and manage direct deposit for your contractors.
Then, make sure your company’s payroll is set up for direct deposit payments.
Once done, you can now pay your 1099 contractors using a direct deposit. Follow the steps for your reference:
- Go to the Banking menu and select Write Checks to start the direct deposit.
- Fill in the necessary information.
- Make sure the Pay Online checkbox is checked. Note: If you’ve entered bank account information for your contractor, QuickBooks select the Online Payment checkbox box.
- Click Save & Close. This opens the Confirmation and Next Steps window.
- Select Send to Intuit to open the Send/Receive window. Note: If you close the window on accident, go to the Employees menu and select Send Payroll Data.
- Click Send and enter your direct deposit PIN.
