I’ll provide some detailed information on how to process account movements for 1099 forms, pinnaclemei.
It's great to see that you have followed my colleague's earlier recommendation regarding the mapping of accounts. This step is crucial in ensuring your financial records are correctly aligned for tax reporting.
If that's the only account you can change, then that means the rest of the account has already been mapped to either 1099 MISC or NEC. To verify this, we can check the correct mapping of each form to ensure the correct boxes are mapped for each account.
When it comes to mapping your accounts, you have two options:
You can either display all accounts available in your chart of accounts or narrow it down to only those accounts that are relevant for 1099 transactions involving your vendors. This tailored approach helps streamline the reporting process.
Here's how:
- Go to Edit then select Preferences.
- Choose Tax 1099, and click Company Preferences.
- Choose either of these forms you want to map:
- If you want to map your accounts to boxes on Form 1099-NEC.
- If you want to map your accounts to boxes on Form 1099-MISC.
It’s important to remember that during the mapping process, only accounts categorized as Expense, Income, Liability, Other/fixed asset, and Equity are eligible for reporting on 1099 forms. To show all accounts, we can click the All accounts button to display a comprehensive view of all your financial accounts in one place for easy monitoring.
Additionally, payments made via CC or third-party system will be automatically excluded on the 1099 form even though you've already reached the threshold with the correct mapping.
Furthermore, many payments are classified as excluded from 1099 reporting based on the account type used. For instance, payments made via credit cards and certain terms often trigger the exclusion. Some can be identified by key terms such as "Debit," "Debit card," "DBT," "DBT card," "DCard," "Debit CD," "Visa," "Mastercard," "MC," "MCard," "Chase," "Discover," "Diners," and "PayPal."
Any payment made using a credit card, debit card, or third-party platform like PayPal, Venmo, etc is excluded from 1099. These transactions can be excluded by using the above keyword suggestions. By putting these codes or terms, it's simply telling QuickBooks that this isn't a check or a direct money transfer that's being paid with a card or some sort. In this case, QuickBooks is going to exclude them.
