Your issue ends here, @ehh1212.

As stated by my peer MonicaM3 above, the reason why the report doesn't populate data is that you haven't assigned a form for the vendors. Since you aren't able to find the "Prepare 1099" in your QuickBooks software, allow me to provide a screenshot for your visual reference. 

Depending on your QuickBooks version, may I know which one are you using? If you're using QuickBooks Online (QBO), you can find it in the Vendors menu.

However, if you're using QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), you can prepare 1099s by going to the Vendors menu and selecting 1099 Forms, then Print/E-file 1099 Forms. For more guidance, feel free to check out this article: Create and file 1099s with QuickBooks Desktop.

You might also want to read this article to learn which payments should be excluded from the 1099-MISC and 1099-NEC form: What payments are excluded from a 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC?

Please know that I'm just a reply away if you need any further assistance preparing your 1099. Wishing you and your business continued success.
