Question

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.

I record the line items separately and assign each line item to a class (either A or B).  The chart of account line item / account type and description may be the same with just the class assignment being different.  Which is what is confusing to me.  QB is recognizing the line item when it is assigned to class A and is correctly pulling it into the 1099 but QB is not recognizing (when it should) the exact same line item when it is assigned to class B.

 

I do not pay any of these contractor bills/invoices with a credit card so that is not the issue. 


Thank you for keeping us updated on this thread, and I truly appreciate the effort you're putting into resolving this issue, @jreardon. I completely understand the importance of pulling the missing amounts in your 1099s, and I’m here to guide you through a couple of solutions that should help.

 

Since you've already mapped out all your contractors eligible for a 1099-NEC, and they weren’t paid via credit card, the next step is to update your QuickBooks Desktop to the latest version. Updating your software not only ensures it runs seamlessly but also helps prevent any issues like this. Here's a helpful article with step-by-step instructions to guide you: Update QBDT to the latest release.

 

After updating, if the amounts are still missing, we can try re-sorting the class list to address the issue.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. From the Lists menu, select Class List.

  2. In the Class dropdown, click Re-sort List.
  3. Hit OK.

 

If the problem persists after re-sorting the class list, I recommend reaching out to our Live Support team. They have the necessary tools to securely review your account, identify the cause of the issue, and guide you on the possible next step.
