1099 forms

This year our quickbooks was condensed and not in a good way.  We now have information in an old QB file and our new QB.  Although the balances are correct in the new quickbooks, the amounts don't show up on the 1099 correctly.  My question is, can you make changes to the 1099 before they are printed?

1099 forms

Hello @tnbristol24. Let me share some insights about 1099 forms.

 

Sometimes, after condensing data into a new QuickBooks company file, the 1099 amounts may not show up correctly due to incorrect transaction dates or data file problems. I suggest running a 1099 Summary report, 1099 Detail report, and vendor settings to ensure everything accurately reflects all the payments made during the tax year. For further details on why the 1099s reflect wrong amounts, you can check out this article: Troubleshoot missing contractors or wrong amounts on 1099s.

 

Yes, you can make changes to the 1099 forms before they are printed in QuickBooks Desktop. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you make changes to the 1099 forms:

 

  1. Go to Vendors and select Print/E-file 1099s.
  2. Choose 1099 Wizard then click on Get Started.
  3. Go to vendors that need form 1099-MISC and pick Continue.
  4. Verify the vendor information is correct. You can edit any incorrect information by double-clicking on the section that needs updating.
  5. Go to the drop-down in the Apply Payments to this 1099 box section. Choose the account you want to link the payment to and click on Continue
  6. Review your payment information.
  7. Choose View Included Payments and View Excluded Payments. Then select Continue.
  8. Review the vendors and amounts you're going to report.
  9. Choose whether to print 1099s or E-file.

 

You can also check out the Make Fine Alignment Adjustments section of this link for details on printer setup: Alignment, checks, invoices, and other forms for continuous-feed (dot matrix) printers.
