Does anyone know how to print a 1099 from a previous year on QBO? I need to print a 1099 from 2019. Trying also to locate the account number for that 1099 form.

Let me guide you to print your prior 1099 form in QuickBooks Onlne (QBO), userdanielle1.

When printing your previous 1099 forms, it depends on how you submitted them. If you've filed your 1099 form electronically, you can follow the steps below to print the 1099 form for 2019: 

1. Go to the 1099 E-File Service login page.
2. Enter your User ID, Password, then click Sign In.
3. Select the company that you've signed up for the E-File service.
4. Click the Download and print copies for your records hyperlink.
5. On the Download Your 1099 Forms page, click the Download link.
6. Continue with the process to successfully download the form.

If you submitted them manually, here's how you can pull them up:

1. Go to Expenses from the left menu.
2. Select Vendors.
3. Choose Prepare 1099s and click Continue your 1099s.
4. Hit Next until you're on the Check that the payments add up page.
5. Choose the filter menu (funnel icon) in the top-left of your Contractor list, select 2018 or 2019, and click Finish preparing 1099s.
6. Tap  I'll file myself.
7. Pick 1099, then 2019 under Tax Year.
8. Hit Yes, that looks good! and select 1099, then 2019.
9. Press Print on 1099 forms.

For more details about this one, see the Prepare and file 1099s using QuickBooks Online article. Just in case you encounter issues with submitting 1099, check out the Troubleshoot common 1099 issues article to fix it. To make the corrections, we need to send it by mail to the IRS. Here's how:

1. Go to the Expenses tab on the left-hand menu, then Vendors.
2. Click Prepare 1099s. Make sure all details are correct and select Print and mail.
3. Choose the 1096 form, then Yes, looks good!
4. Hit Print on a 1096 Form.
5. Once finished, manually tick the Corrected box.

There's no deadline to file the corrected 1099-MISC. Although, it must be filed as soon as the error was discovered. To include the account number on 1099, it would be best to contact our Customer Support Team to check this one on their end.

I'd like to know how you get on after trying the steps, as I want to ensure this is resolved for you. Feel free to reply to this post and I'll get back to you. Take care always.

Thank you for the steps, but unfortunately, when I get to the review screen I do not see a filter option to change the year. 

I appreciate the steps you've performed, userdanielle1. 

I can share some information regarding printing 1099 from prior years. At this time, we're unable to generate the forms in QBO. As mentioned by my colleague above, if you e-filed via E-service, copies of the prior 1099's are available there. If you haven't and aren't able to save a PDF copy, a custom report will be required and, 1099 will be manually filled out. 

Let's run the Transaction List by Vendor report and customize it to get the information we need.

Here are the steps:

1. Go to the Reports menu.
2. In the Find report by name, enter Transaction List by Vendor.
3. Filter for only Vendors subject to 1099's
4. Filter for only 1099 accounts
5. Group the report by Vendor.
6. Print the correct 1099 Tax Year form from the IRS.

7. Manually fill out the form.

That should do it! If I can be of any additional assistance, please let me know. I'll be around to keep helping.

Unfortunately, these steps still did not help. The piece of info I need does not show in this report. What I need is the account number that appears on the 1099-MISC form above box 15a. Again if there was one. My understanding is that typically this area is filled if you created an account number, I don't recall doing so, but I took over this job from someone else and I don't know if they may have selected something upon setup. Does anyone know if QBO even gives the option to include an account number? When I printed and saved my 1099-NECs this year I didn't see an account number created...In addition to me keeping a copy for my own records, trust me I've learned my lesson, QBO should really have a feature where 1099s are kept, whether e-filed or printed manually. Please bring the filter back that appears on the review step for the 1099s... Seems odd that 1099 information just goes away and it's not able to be pulled up again. 

It's my pleasure to assist you today, @userdanielle1.

I'm here to help you run your desired report that includes the account numbers from your 1099s in QuickBooks Online (QBO).

We can run the Vendor Contact List report in QBO. This shows all transactions and total amount for each contractor and their account number. I'd be happy to walk you through how to run this report:

1. Log in to your QuickBooks Online account.
2. Go to the Reports menu at the left panel.
3. In the Find report by name field, search and choose Vendor Contact List.
4. Click the Customize button to add some filters.
5. Once done, click Run report.
   
   

I've also added this resource to help you in preparing 1099 in QuickBooks Online: Create a 1099 report for vendors and vendor payments.

You may want to visit this article on how categorize contractor and 1099 vendor payments.

Feel at ease to let me know if you have other concerns. I'll be happy to help you. Have a nice day ahead.

Great detailed instructions, however, i don't see the funnel filter icon (left of contractor list) for selecting prior years.  thanks

Thank you for joining on this thread, @dunkin.

I want to make sure you're able to get the previous form in QuickBooks Online. 

Let me provide you screenshots where you can see the funnel filter icon (left of contractor list) for selecting prior years.

Please note that the funnel filter will visibleonly if you submitted the form manually as my colleague mentioned above. 

Once confirmed and the issue persists, I'd suggest performing primary troubleshooting steps to isolate the difficulty. Stored cache files on your browser can sometimes cause this to occur.

To begin, please access your account via incognito. These browsers won't save any browsing histories. 

Feel free to use these shortcut keys:

• Google Chrome: Ctrl + Shift + N
• Safari 11 or newer: ⌘ + Shift + N
• Mozilla Firefox: Ctrl + Shift + P
• Microsoft Edge: Ctrl + Shift + P

Once logged in, go back to the Check that the payments add up page and re-check the funnel filter icon to verify it's already functioning well. If you're able to do so, we'll have to go back to your regular browser and clear the cache to eliminate the junk files. Using other supported browsers is a good alternative too. 

I've also added some pages on how to fix missing contractors, payments, wrong amounts, and other relevant topics. 

• Fix missing contractors or wrong amounts on 1099s
• How to correct or change 1099s in QuickBooks

• How to modify your chart of accounts for your 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC filing

Let me know if you're able to get the form and manually submit it to the IRS. I want to make sure your books are accurate. Keep safe!

I'm having the same problem being unable to print prior year 1099's from QBO, and I've now tried the "fixes" from three different threads.  Nothing works.  @dunkin is correct - the funnel filter icon DOES NOT APPEAR in either the 1099 transaction detail report or in the Prepare 1099's module, on the check payments page (it used to...).  I can run a 1099 transaction detail report, but any of my vendors that were previously 1099-MISC and were re-mapped to 1099-NEC for 2020 aren't retained in the prior years!  The same problem presents when checking 'Track 1099' or '1099 Printed' in the 'Vendor Contact List report'.

Has anyone figured out how to print accurate prior years 1099 reports from QBO???  I need this information for a TAX audit, going back 4 years, and the auditors want to see the summary page, i.e. the 1096, also.  Another post said that if you e-filed through Intuit you could still access old reports through your e-file account, so Intuit clearly has the ability to retain this information and fix it; but instead it seems they want to punish those of use who chose not to pay them to e-file.  PLEASE fix this QB!

The Efile service redirects me to you again and then I get a message

the 2021 filing service is over, we look forward to helping you again in 2022.

HOW does that help me at all ???
