Reporting 1099 Transactions in the US | Microsoft Docs

The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires one or more versions of the 1099 tax form for payments to vendors. Copies of these forms must be sent to vendors annually on or before the last day of January. On your purchase documents, you can specify that the document is 1099 liable, and you can specify the 1099 code for the vendor.

Regulatory 1099 Format Changes December 2018

In Business Central , A new 1099 Form Box code DIV-05 has been added, and all the 1099 codes from DIV-05 to DIV-11 were upgraded to codes from DIV-06 to DIV-12. When you open the IRS 1099 Form Box page, a notification pops up to upgrade the form boxes. If you change the 1099 code on the Vendor Card page, a notification will display asking if you want to update the 1099 codes for all the associated entries (like purchase documents, journal lines, posted invoices, credit memos and vendor ledger entries).

1099 codes

In Business Central , the most common 1099 codes are already set up for you so you are ready to generate the required reports. The codes are defined on the IRS 1099 Form Box page where you can also add new 1099 codes. For each tax liable vendor, you can then specify the relevant 1099 code on the Payments FastTab on the Vendor card.

With the Vendor 1099 Information report, you can review 1099 transactions paid during a specified period. At the end of the year, you can print 1099 transactions on preprinted forms.
