I've added these articles to help you manage the 1099 form in QuickBooks:

I do not have an quickbooks online company.  I have quickbooks payroll only.  Please let me know how to request this through quickbooks payroll.

I spoke to three different CSR on Friday and no one had a clue.  Could I please talk to you directly so that you can help me get this done?  I just need to change one 1099 from NEC to RENT.

Thanks for getting back to this thread, @scaredycut.

Rubielyn,

Thanks for the quick reply.

Just to clarify: the payroll team is able to modify the 1099 for me?  This is due Monday and I'm expecting they will be busy so I'd love to have as much prepped as possible.  As I said the last 3 CSR from payroll could not help me on Friday.

I DO use QuickBooks but offline.  I have not interest in going through the labor of switching and have no reason to other than resolving moving one number on a 1099 form.

I had intuit payroll for for many years and was able to do this without any trouble.  As you are probably aware we were all forced to switch our accounts.  I just mention this as I think it would be appropriate for the tech department to resolve this one deficiency as I know it's an issue for a lot of customers.

Looking forward to you reply.

Thanks,

Matthew

Allow me to step in and share some clarifications about your payroll account, scaredycut.

You're maybe using QuickBooks Online Payroll Core since Intuit Online Payroll was migrated to this plan.

In addition to this, you need a 1099-MISC form for rental payments. Payments found on a 1099-MISC are geared towards vendors, attorneys, and other individuals who are not proper contractors.

Please browse this link to see what boxes are included on your return: 1099-MISC

In addition to this, we'll help you file 1099-MISC. Just make sure you have an active payroll subscription. Also, you're right that we can help modify your Chart of Accounts for the 1099-MISC filing.

You can also do map accounts on your QuickBooks account. Please refer to this link for detailed steps: Modify your chart of accounts for your 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC filing. Then, select QuickBooks Online section to learn how to move payments to 1099-MISC.

If you need further assistance, our QuickBooks Live Support Team can do screen sharing with you. You can get back to them so they can guide you through mapping accounts for 1099-MISC. 

Let me know if you have follow-up questions about your 1099 concerns. Just leave a comment below, and I'll get back to you.

MarylandT,

Thanks for the reply.  I ONLY have payroll online with QuickBooks.  So there is no chart of accounts, mapping or anything else.  I do not have my quickbooks accounting software online at all (it is offline from a CD rom on a laptop).

In order to even have the 1099s generate I had to create a single check for each vendor online where there was no option for "RENT" only "Contractor payment".

So as I had no luck with 3 CSRs on Friday trying to resolve this what I need is:
What can online payroll do (or instruct me to do) to input an amount in box 1, RENTS, of a 1099 so that I can properly submit it to the IRS on Monday.  An administrative override, or whatever is needed.  It will really help if I can tell them what to do when I call in.

Thanks!
Matthew

Hello, scaredycut.

I'll share the steps to ensure the amount will reflect in box 1 using QuickBooks Online Payroll.

You're on the right track. You can create a single check for each vendor. Then, select the Contractor Payment option when creating a check for your vendor. When you're ready to prepare and file 1099 for them, you'll have the option to choose box 1. I'll show you how.

1. Click the Taxes menu, then 1099 filing.
2. Review your company information, then Next.
3. In the Categorize payments to contractors page, select the box Rents and ensure you've selected a correct expense account in the dropdown.
4. Hit Next.
5. In the Review your contractor's info page, make sure all the details are correct, then Next.
6. You'll see those contractors you paid above the threshold in the Check that the payments add up page.
7. Once ready, click Finish preparing 1099s button.
8. After that, you can choose either Continue to e-file or No, I'll print and mail.

Check out this article for more details about payment categories for the 1099s: Understand payment categories for the 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC.

Let me know if you need further assistance with 1099s in QuickBooks Online Payroll. I'll be here to assist you.

Giovann_G,

Thank you for trying to solve this for me.  Unfortunately that does not work.  I am unable to create a payment with rent as the account/form of the payment.

So nothing shows up when I follow the steps and only select "Rent" as the filter for contractors.

I do not have QuickBooks online (my accounts has on QuickBooks OFFLINE).  I was a customer with intuit payroll, where I had no issues, that was migrated over.

I really hope that when I call in a few hours someone will have the ability to override and make this small change for me.

Thanks,

Matthew
