How do i map an expense account in Quickbooks online so that it's included on the 1099 form? Thanks!

Thank you!

How do I map an expense account if I have previously run 1099 wizard and need to add a contractor not on the original list?

Hi personalfinancialplanning!

You can always add more 1099 contractors in QuickBooks Online. Let me help you!

Let's first make sure that they are set up in QuickBooks Online by following these steps:

1. Go to the Expenses menu, select Vendors, and click New vendor.
   Another way is to click the Payroll menu, select Contractors, then Add a contractor.
2. Make sure to check the Track payments for 1099 box. Enter the details needed.
3. Tap Save.

Once done, add the contractor payments.

Even if you submitted your 1099s already, you can still create a new set of 1099s in QuickBooks Online. From the Contractors page, click the Prepare 1099s button, then Continue your 1099s. From step 2, Accounts, you can map the expense accounts you used to track the payments. Then, process it as you normally do.
