Multiple 1099 problems

Hi there, @jcellis5716.

It's good to have you here in the Community. I can provide some troubleshooting steps to get this to get this 1099 issue sorted out.

There are some possible reasons why the amounts are incorrect on your 1099. These are the following:

• The vendor was not set up as eligible for 1099.
• The vendor was paid from an account that is not marked as a 1099 account.
• The vendor has not met the threshold needed to generate a 1099.
• The vendor is set up as an Other Name type instead of Vendor. 

To learn on how to fix this issue, please refer to these articles for some troubleshooting steps:

• Possible reasons why amounts or vendors are missing in the 1099 Summary Report.
• Troubleshoot 1099's.

BettyJane Thank you for your help.  I checked all the vendors to make sure they are eligible for 1099s, and they are.  They are all paid from the expense account "Contractor fees" which has a tax-line mapping of "1099-MISC: Nonemployee compensation.  Their total compensation is way over the $600 limit.  I hadn't thought about the Vendor vs Other, but I've check it and they are all vendors.  I believe the problem is that they have been paid out of a Venmo Account which I built in the Chart of Accounts as a "Credit Card".  The payments they received on check's are all on the 1099 report, but none of the Venmo payments.  We reimburse Venmo from the checking account.  Should I delete the Venmo account and just enter all the vendor payments into the checking account with "venmo" as the check number?  That may be the simplest way to fix this.  Although I don't see why QB won't work with the Venmo account.

Hello there, @jcellis5716.

I appreciate you coming back to us for additional support. Allow me to join this thread and share some more insights about the transactions included in 1099s.

Only bill payment and check transactions are included in 1099s. Transactions marked as credit card, debit card, or PayPal transactions will not be included.

Yes, you can delete them and re-enter under the checking account. Before that, I recommend create a backup copy to secure your company file and prevent data loss.

That should correct your recordings and help you pull up the 1099 forms, jcellis5716.

Keep me posted if there's anything else you need or if you have follow up questions. I'm still here to help you further with 1099s. Wishing you all the best.

I am having the same problem up to the method of payment. I did not pay with Venmo or CC, they were paid with a check, just like the other 1099 vendors who are showing up on my report. I've confirmed they (the ones not showing up correctly) are checked for 1099 eligibility, exceed the threshold, and none of our accounts are set to be mapped. I checked the mapping drop down box - and there is no map to 1099 in there. I would've used it if there was! I just can't understand why people I can clearly see have more than the threshold, are in an appropriate account, are marked as 1099 eligible, are not showing up on the report or in the print 1099 list. They show up on the "Confirm your 1099 entries" page, with their amounts in the "Unmapped Payments" window. I tried changing the account on the line item, but then the amount just disappears from the Unmapped Payment amount - it doesn't show up anywhere else. This is making me crazy.  

I appreciate you joining the thread and providing detailed information about your concern, @SunshineBe77829.

The reason why some of your vendors aren’t showing on the report or the 1099 list is that the accounts used on transactions made to them aren’t mapped as a 1099 account. Make sure to select the box where you want the payments to appear in the Map vendor payments account window to correct this. 

Set the filter to Show all accounts, then pick a box for the accounts in the Apply payments to this 1099 box column. Please see screenshots below for visual reference:
