• Specific 1099 Contact
• No need to update the primary contact
• Simplifies the process of having a different address for 1099’s
If there is a 1099 Contact, the Name will print on the 1099 in place of the “Print As” field on the Vendor record. If there is a 1099 Name on the Vendor record it will print that first and then the Contact Name, if they are different. If they are exactly the same, only one name will print.

1099 Setup – Vendor SetupThis screen displays after you Save the vendor info.
If you wish to enter YTD balances for this year, select the default date of this year found in the Initial Values for Yeardrop-down list. Then, enter the starting YTD balances in the blank fields. Future amounts you pay the vendor through Sage Intacct are added to the amounts, if any, you enter here.
Tip: Remember to only enter the calendar year-to-date 1099 balance for each vendor (In addition, if your company is on a fiscal year that does not correspond with the calendar year, you need to back out payments made to that vendor during the prior calendar year.)Also, AP Advances cannot be tagged as 1099able, so you may need to include these in your Initial Values for the year.
11
1099 Vendor Setup - Continued
• For multi-entity shared companies, the process varies depending on whether the Issue a separate 1099 per entity checkbox is selected or not in the Multi-Entity subscription/configuration.
• When the Issue a separate 1099 per entity checkbox is selected, initial YTD amounts are entered at the top level by selecting the entity, or entity level for each entity. In this mode, vendors in each entity are assigned entity-specific initial amounts, even if they use the same vendor.
• If not selected, initial amounts for all vendors and all entities are entered at the top-level.

1099 Setup – Vendor Setup
Entering Information for "Other Form 1099 Boxes"
• When you have set up a vendor as 1099 eligible, and then make payments to that vendor, the Intacct system keeps track of that information and automatically prints it on 1099 forms. However, some information required for a 1099 form may not be available on the Intacct system. If you examine an actual 1099-MISC form, you will notice that box 9 contains information that is not available on the Intacct system. Consequently, blank fields are provided for you to enter this information. If you had selected this form in the drop-down list, you could add an "X" in Box 9 (if applicable).

Uploads for 1099s
• Uploading Vendors
• FORM1099TYPE/BOX. In the normal user interface, you find these fields on the Form 1099 Information page by clicking the Form1099 link for an existing vendor. These fields set the default form type/box for transactions going forward. You may later update this field to other box types for individual existing transactions using the Update Vendor 1099 Transactions upload.
• NAME1099 supplies the information for the Recipient's Name box on the 1099 form. In the normal user interface, this field is titled 1099 Name and is found on the Vendor Information page, Additional Information tab. On the 1099 form, the system places the 1099 name first in the "Recipients name" box if the 1099 name exists, and the ‘print as’ name (which is usually a copy of the vendor name) second. The print as name is found on the Vendor tab. If the 1099 name does not exist, the system places the ‘print as’ name as the only name. You can update the NAME1099 field for multiple vendors simultaneously with the Update Vendor 1099 Transactions upload.

Uploads for 1099s
Vendor 1099 Transaction Update (or Employee 1099 Transaction Update)
This upload is different from most others because you do not create new records. Instead, you update existing ones. The upload can retroactively mark existing transactions as 1099-able for vendors you specify and for a given time period. Additional fields update the 1099 form type and box, as well as the 1099 name. You may update any combination of these fields in a single upload. For example, you could update the form type and box, but not the 1099 name and transactions. You must include form type and box as well as the date range for a transaction update. ***Please Note: For CSV-imported bills, you can mark bills as 1099-able if you imported them as unpaid or partially paid, but not if you imported them as paid.
The system ignores a blank in the NAME1099, DEFAULT1099TYPE, and DEFAULT1099BOX fields, and does not change the existing data. To delete the data, enter the value NULL.
UPDATETRANS is required. If you enter a Y, the system flags all the transactions for the given date range as 1099-able. An N instructs the system not to flag the transactions. If you enter a Y, then you must also supply data for type and box, as well as the date range.

1099 FAQs• Why is my 1099 Report blank? / Why is my Vendor or Bill missing from the 1099 report?
This is normally caused by 1099 information not selected for a vendor. To check this:
1. Go to Accounts Payable
2. Edit the appropriate vendor.
3. Go to the "Additional Information" tab
4. Click on the "1099 Form" link (Note: this only appears in edit mode)
5. Select the correct 1099 year
6. Verify the 1099 type has been selected
• No, it is not selected: Select the default 1099 for type and box. On ‘Save’ the system will provide a prompt if you want to update Current Year and Last Year transactions. If ‘Cancel’ selected, then you would need to enter the vendors 1099 amount in the appropriate box for the amount to be shown on the vendors 1099. This must be done; just selecting the box does not update previously created bills. Previously created bills will be updated if you select ‘Save’ when prompted.
• Yes, it is selected: Then verify the following:
1. The bills for this vendor do have the 1099 box checked as true (this is a box that can be unchecked by anyone)
2. Ensure the "Paid Date" of the bills is in the correct 1099 year - the 1099 amount appears in the year it was paid.

• What if we have 250 or more 1099s?
-If you have more than 250 1099s, it is required that you file electronically.

1099 Tips
• Don’t forget to change the year before printing the forms.
• If the vendor’s total 1099 amount is less than $600 (2017 government guidelines), Intacct will not generate a 1099 for that vendor.
• 1099 amounts show in the year that the bill is paid. So for example if you pay a vendor in 2017 for a bill in 2016, the payment amount will be on the 2017 Form 1099.
• Company address will be the Legal Address on the Company Info screen for a single entity.(Company>Company Info) Company address for ME-Shared will be the address information on the Entity (Company>Entity) – checkbox to include Legal Address of the entity on 1099s and 1096
• If ME-Share and setup to ‘Issue a separate 1099 for each entity’ is selected in the ME configuration, and Entity 2’s bill is paid on behalf of Entity 1, the payment to the vendor will be included on Entity 2’s 1099.
• If the vendor is owned by an entity, the 1099 report will need to be produced at the entity level.
