Join nowTrying to run a 1099-NEC for a vendor that was previously set up for 1099-MISC in QB Desktop. Vendor center tax settings, check "eligible for 1099." (Doesn't ask which one). Keeps showing up as 1099-Misc when I try to process it. Read all articles. Chart of Accounts edit screen - "Cleaning Services" set up as an expense. There is no option for tax line mapping, as all the screenshots show that there should be. There are only options for Description and Note. Edit, preferences, 1099 company preferences, map accounts to boxes on 1099NEC "you can do it here" yields the same results of showing box 3 on the miscellaneous for that vendor....and round and round I go.
I'm here to ensure you're able to create a new 1099-NEC account in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), mwhip.
We appreciate you for performing some troubleshooting steps to get this sorted out. Let's make sure we create a new expense account in QuickBooks to track your non-employee payments. Let's start by creating a backup of your company file for future use. Then once ready, follow these steps in creating the 1099-NEC account:
After that, you'll have to move your payments to the new account (i.e., create a journal entry) to show them in the newly created 1099-NEC accounts. Then, run a 1099 Summary report to validate the changes. I'd recommend checking out this article's Set up QuickBooks for the 1099-NEC forms (QuickBooks Desktop) section for the step-by-step guide: How to modify your chart of accounts for your 1099-NEC filing.
If the same thing happens, let's make sure we update QuickBooks Desktop to the latest release. Once done, use the Rebuild Data tool to automatically fix minor company file data issues. Here's how:
If QuickBooks doesn't find any problems, press OK. You can keep using your company file if you don't have any data damage. Then, select Rebuild Now if QuickBooks finds an issue with your company file.
If you’re still having data issues after rebuilding your company file, try again. If you still have data issues, use the QuickBooks File Doctor to fix your company file. You can check out this article for more details about fixing data damage on your QuickBooks Desktop company file: Fix data damage on your QuickBooks Desktop company file.
Additionally, here's an article that'll further guide you in preparing and filing your federal 1099s: Create and file 1099s with QuickBooks Desktop. It also includes answers to the most frequently asked questions about 1099s.

Hello - "Tax-line mapping" is not showing up as an available option, as noted in step #5. I have the available updates. It will be easier for me to manually prepare the one 1099-NEC that I have than to try to go through rebuilding the data. This is so ridiculous to spend so much time trying to access a feature (Tax-line mapping) that should be there. Thank you for your time.
I understand the hassle that this has caused you, mwhip.
Rebuilding data can help fix the missing Tax line mapping option. Thus, I suggest performing all the troubleshooting steps shared by my colleague to resolve the problem.

I went through ALL of these suggestions. Rebuild results that were fixed: Error 190, Error 317. Repair tool found no issues. Still have the same issue of no "Tax-line Mapping" showing up as an option when setting up a new expense.
