Missing Class Amounts in 1099

I'm running test 1099 forms to make sure everything is accurate for the end of the year reporting.  I use classes (I have two) in my Quickbooks Desktop software to track the assignment of expenses.  I've mapped everything out for all contractors eligible to receive a 1099-NEC and I'm noticing that QB is not pulling in an entire class of mapped accounts.  Can someone help me troubleshoot this?

@jreardon The first question that comes to mind is what the missing class is.

 

If it happens to be contractors that are paid by credit card or similar, that would be the issue.

 

Payments by credit card or similar electronic payments do not go on a 1099-NEC; they are already accounted for by the contractor's merchant service provider by way of a 1099-K, something you wouldn't be involved in.

Payments to these contractors are not made via credit card or similar.

Hi, @jreardon.
 

I agree with @FishingForAnswer. Payments made via credit card or other electronic payment methods, such as PayPal, should not be reported on a 1099-NEC. The IRS specifically excludes these types of payments (credit card, debit card, gift card, PayPal, etc.) from being reported on Form 1099-MISC or 1099-NEC, as they are already reported by the payment processor on Form 1099-K. QuickBooks Desktop handles this for you automatically by excluding them from your 1099 forms.
 

In addition to this, make sure that all accounts used for contractor expense transactions are properly mapped to the correct 1099 category during the setup process.

To verify which accounts are included or excluded from your 1099s, you can pull up the Review payments for exclusions.
