Check employee 1099 eligibility

Intacct can only generate and print 1099 forms for employees who have been set up as eligible for 1099s.

1. Go to Expenses > All > Employees.
2. Select Edit beside the required employee.
3. In the Additional information tab, is the required 1099 form listed beside the Form 1099 link?

   If so, this is an indicator that the employee is at least partly set up for 1099 eligibility.

   If not, the employee isn't eligible and you can now resolve the issue by making the employee eligible.

4. Select Form 1099.
5. In the Form 1099 information page, makes sure that the following fields have values:
   1. Form name: The 1099 form to send to the employee This is the form name that appears on the Additional information tab after you save.
   2. Default 1099 box: The form box where the employee payments should be tracked.
   3. Initial values for year: The year that the 1099 covers.

      If you want historical values included in the employee payment total, make sure they’re added.

   After you save, the Additional information tab lists the selected 1099 form beside the Form 1099 link.
