Hello there, CCampbell.
Let me provide insights and clarification on how 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC work in QuickBooks Desktop. I'll also ensure that the rent transaction shows up on the right form within the program.
When preparing your 1099s you have the option to choose the box for the types of payments you made and the expense accounts you use for these payments. That said, QuickBooks will depend on how you set up the details on 1099. I suggest making sure that the accounts and boxes are properly mapped for both the 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC forms so QuickBooks will automatically determine the entries that should go to the 1099-MISC. Before doing the process, you'll first need to omit the rent payment that shows on the NEC.
Here's how:
- Click the Vendors menu at the top.
- Select 1099 Forms and Print/E-file 1099 Forms.
- Select Get started on the 1099-NEC. Then, choose Omit these payments from 1099.
- Click Continue.
After that, you can go back to the page where you can see the Get Started under the Form 1099-MISC. Then, choose Box 1:Rent. You can then refer to this article for instructions on how to set accounts and boxes properly: Modify your chart of accounts for your 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC filing.

You can always post here in the QuickBooks Community if you have other concerns or inquiries on managing 1099 in QBDT. I'm always here to make sure that everything is taken care of, CCampbell. Have a great day!
