How do I create a a category for "third party settlement". As per fiverr we are not required to send 1099s to the individual freelancers. For schedule C, they suggest using "third party settlement" for the expenses.

The categories available in QuickBooks Self-Employed (QBSE) are aligned with the categories found in the 1040 Schedule C form. You can refer to this article about Schedule C and expense categories in QBSE for the list of categories that best fits to third party settlement.
To make sure the categories you used are accurate, I suggest reaching out to your accountant to seek professional advice. Or, you can post your questions here. There are available experts who can share their best practices with you.

I believe he means which general ledger expense account should be used when paying a vendor like Fiver or Upwork or freelancer.com. These are third party services where you get projects done and they pay the contractor directly and issue 1099s to them. I think this more more be a general expense based on what you are getting done. For example if you are hiring a freelancer to do work vs creating a tool that will be used internally for your company, vs perhaps having someone write copy for your blog or website. It's important to emphasize that the third party is issuing the 1099 from their company to the contractor so it's not employment or a contractor payment.
Does anyone know the account to post to?
