1099 Report is NOT WORKING anymore

As of a couple of months ago, when I pull a 1099 report (summary or detail) so that I can review prior to printing 1099s is now blank. I know all applicable vendors have their eligible for 1099 boxes checked. I think this has something to do with the new 1099-NEC form and I have read numerous discussions about this issue but have not found a solution. PLEASE HELP!

1099 Report is NOT WORKING anymore

I FOUND THE FIX!!!!

In order to view data on the 1099 summary or detail for 1099NEC vendors, you must do it through the 1099 wizard.  

 

Click on Vendor tab at top

1099 forms

Print/E-File 1099 forms

You'll get a notice about "before you prepare and file forms 1099,,,," - click yes

You have the option to "Get Started" for 1099misc or 1099nec

Once you clicked get started for 1099nec, hit continue

Hit continue again (this is the verify your 1099 info screen)

Hit continue again (this is map vendor payments and accounts)

NOW you can view the detail report. at the top right where you see 1  2  3  4  5, just below the description for the numbers you will see View Detail Report :)

Click continue and in the same place on the next screen you will see View Summary Report :)

 

There you have it folks. 

 

 

NOTE: you can view 1099misc vendors from the vendor tab at top by selecting the report option, but his will not work for 1099nec vendors.

1099 Report is NOT WORKING anymore

Hi there, @Vixen_Storm.

 

Allow me to share the troubleshooting steps to see the latest1099 forms in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT).

 

The 1099 NEC form is now available in QBDT. I'd suggest getting the latest tax table to fix form-related issues.

 

Then, update the program to get synchronized with the latest data. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Help and choose Update QuickBooks Desktop.
  2. Go to the Update Now tab.
  3. Select the Reset Update and click Get Updates to start the download.
  4. Once done. Hit OK and restart QuickBooks.
  5. When prompted, accept the option to install the new release. This is how it looks like:

 

After that, click the File menu and select 1099's/1096. For more information about the printing process, go through this article: How do I print my 1099 forms?.

 

Please note that Form 1099-NEC due date is February 1, 2021. Make sure to submit the form before due dates to avoid getting penalties. For more details, you can check this article: Tax year due dates

 

I've added this article about the year-end task: QuickBooks Desktop Year End Prep and Resources.

 

Let me know if you have other questions. I'll be around to back you up. Take care.

Thank you but this is not a form related issue at all. As stated, I am not able to pull a report for 2020 to show my 1099 Vendors. Also, we have QB Enterprise Solutions 20.0 so I am not sure if this matters for your update instructions. If not, I tried as you stated and got the Update Error: Failed to reset update. Please advise.

We can perform a few troubleshooting steps to isolate the issue, Vixen_Storm.

 

There are a few ways on how we can resolve the error update. You can start with running the Quick Fix my Program from the QuickBooks Desktop Tool Hub. Here's how:

 

  1. Download and install the QuickBooks Desktop Tool Hub.
  2. Go to the Program Problems tab, then select Quick Fix my Program.
  3. Reopen QuickBooks and your company file.
  4. Download and install the update.

If you're still getting errors, you can use this reference on other solutions with the specific error: Fix error when updating Desktop or Payroll.

 

Then, you can pull up your 1099 report again. 

 

Keep me posted on how this works. I'd be more glad to help. Take care!

I am having the same issue. I cannot get either a Vendor 1099 summary or 1099 detail report to work. 

I even tried checking back for previous years history and it is all blank.

I have run a quickbooks update. Everything is updated. The report still does not work.

I have run the Quickbooks Tool Hub. I ran both the "Quick Fix my program" and the "Quickbooks Program Diagnostic Tool". Everything is correct. The report still does not work.

Please provide a solution to this issue.

Let's generate the report that you need, @AdminPro.

 

Can you tell us more about the error you're having when generating the 1099 Summary and 1099 Detail report? That'll help us get the best resolution for the error you're having.

 

If a 1099 contractor is missing from the list when you start to create your 1099s, it could be because they're not active or marked as eligible for a 1099. Also, only those contractors you paid above the annual $600 cash threshold get a 1099.

 

You can go to the Vendors tab to check if your vendors are marked as 1099 Vendor. Here's how:

 

  1. Go to Vendors menu, select Vendor Center.
  2. Double-click the vendor's name and go to the Tax Settings tab.
  3. Click Vendor eligible for 1099 box to place a check mark.
  4. Choose OK.

You can check these articles for more information: 

Here's also a guide on how to categorize your contractor or 1099 vendor payments within QuickBooks Desktop Payroll.

 

Let me know if there's anything that I can help in generating your reports. I'm always here to help. Have a great rest of the day!

1099 Report is NOT WORKING anymore

No one is showing on the report. I know for a fact there are about 100 vendors checked as 1099 eligible AND meet the threshold. 

 

I think the issue is that I access QBD via an RDP connected to a VPN so I have no admin rights to do updates.

 

This report was working just fine until the change of the 1099 form from MISC to NEC. 

 

My I.T. vendor is trying to fix the problem though do we will see!

Exact same issue I'm having. I know I have about 10 vendors marked as 1099 eligible and met the threshold. No one shows up an any year's report! 

 

It worked just fine before the new 1099-NEC form

My I.T. vendor is looking into it as I access QBD via and RDP connection to a VPN and do not have admin rights so I am unable to update QB for the new 1099-NEC form.

The same for me!  I think when the update happened regarding the 1099 changes, it unmapped the accounts.   I went into Edit - Preferences - Tax: 1099 - Company Preferences - map accounts (either MISC or NEC)


After I did that, my info showed up.

I finally figured out the same thing late last night. LOL! 

Edit

Preferences

Tax:1009 (scroll to bottom of list)

Company Preferences

Map the accounts to either 1099 NEC or 1099 MISC by clicking on “you can do it here” under each item. Once everything was re-mapped, I ran the report and it worked.

I understand the implication of any delay in resolving this concern, @Jim T.

 

Let's isolate this concern for possible damage by running the verify and rebuild tool. This is a built-in tool that auto-detect and self-resolves any minor company file data issues. Here's how:

 

To Verify Data:

  1. Go to the File menu.
  2. Choose Utilities.
  3. Select Verify Data.
    • If QuickBooks doesn't find any problems, select OK. You can keep using your company file. You don't have any data damage.

To Rebuild Data:

  1. Click the File menu.
  2. Go to Utilities and select Rebuild Data.
  3. Hit OK to back up your company file.
  4. Wait until the Rebuild is complete.
  5. Click View Results.

You can repeat the same process two or three more times. Once completed, restart your device to ensure that all components are updated. You can try generating a 1099  Summary or Detail report again. 

 

If the issue persists, you'd want to repair QuickBooks. You can read through this article for more detailed instructions in resolving data damage on your QuickBooks Desktop company file: Fix data damage on your QuickBooks Desktop company file.

 

Also, you can read through these articles where you can get additional information on how to resolve unexpected behaviors when navigating around QuickBooks:

Keep me posted if you have other questions or concerns. I'm always here to lend a hand.

QB has changed the way the 1099 forms are processed.  I do not need the new NEC, I only need 1099-MICS.  None of the steps work.  I did not change anything in the way I marked vendors.  QB changed something.

1099 Report is NOT WORKING anymore

Something changed in QB and none of the steps suggested fix it.  I have used QB for years and used Quicken back in the 80s.  I never had these problems before.  I had all vendors correctly marked, all accounts correctly marked.  I even created a NEW account and moved all of the qualified transactions to that account.  Nothing has worked and I have spent hours on it.

1099 Report is NOT WORKING anymore

Thanks for coming here, Blue50.

 

QuickBooks updates the form 1099 MISC to 1099-NEC to be in line with rules and standards required by the IRS.

 

To learn more about what you need to do when filling the 1099-NEC, I suggest checking out this article: 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC Filing.

 

If you wish to use the old 1099-MISC form, I suggest consulting your accountant or tax advisor for expert advice on how to handle this situation.

 

You can also find a Pro Advisor by clicking on this link: Find an accountant.

 

If you have additional questions or concerns, just leave me a comment below. I’ll be happy to help you out.

The suggestion above worked for me....go to edit...preferences.....Tax: 1099.... company preferences....you have to map your accounts again as they were all erased due to the last QB update. Good luck!

I have the exact same problem.  I received a response that was not at all an answer to the issue.  QB changed something.  They seem focused on the new NEC issue that they dropped the ball on the MISC issue.

 

I hope they notice all these posts about this problem and resolve it.

My issue is that QB wants to put things in 199 NEC and I need them in MISC.  It does not offer a choice, only NEC.

1099 Report is NOT WORKING anymore

I had all the vendors and accounts marked correctly but when I go to the section to run the report and print the forms I am not able to select 1099-MISC.  It is not an option.

 

QB used to have this under Vendors, it is now under another section.  I could deal with that but everything about processing 1099-MISC has changed.  As well as every time you go into that section you have to go through selecting the vendors each time.

 

Please review the process for 1099-MISC.

1099 Report is NOT WORKING anymore

Intuit - these prior posts are exactly correct.  The 1099 vendor report is completely blank.  Most people want to run a 1099 detailed report that shows the name and information of the vendor/contractor along with their yearly amount that the 1099 should be for.  You simply can't do that.  It sounds like the last two responses regarding troublshooting are for something completely different then what we are asking for.  Major issue - Intuit needs to fix this ASAP!!!!
