1099-MISC/NEC Form Maintenance - Field Descriptions
Use this table for reference when completing the fields on this screen.
Fields |
Descriptions |
---|---|
Entity |
After entering or selecting an Entity, all records will be shown on the main screen for tax review purposes, and cost center security prevents editing vendors that the operator does not have authorization to access. If the Entity is left blank, the company name
displays. Note: This field
only displays if cost centers are being used and entity tracking is also
enabled in the current company. |
1099 type |
Select the type of 1099: Vendor, Customer, or Other. |
Vendor/cust code |
Enter the vendor or customer code. The system will read the Vendors screen for the entered (V)endor code, or the Customer screen for the entered (C)ustomer code, and complete the name, address, and ID information. It is not necessary to enter a valid customer code. This is particularly helpful for first-year users that may need to send a 1099-MISC/NEC to an individual paid prior to conversion to Spectrum. Note: If you select a vendor with a status of Not used, you will not be
allowed to proceed. If you select a vendor with a status of Inactive, the software
will display a warning. |
Payer tax ID number |
The payer tax ID defaults from the Build 1099-MISC/NEC Form screen; no changes are allowed. |
Vendor total | The total payment made to this vendor displays. |
Recipient |
|
Recipient name |
The name of the vendor/customer displays. |
Alternate name |
Any alternate name stored in the software for the selected vendor will default. Enter an alternate name that you want printed on the 1099-MISC/NEC form, which will print in the Name box. |
Address, City, State |
The full address of the 1099 recipient displays. |

State/payer # |
If state income tax was manually withheld from vendor payments, enter the company's state tax ID in this field. Tip: Kansas and Wisconsin require longer Tax ID numbers than can
be entered in this field. For these states, enter
REPLACEME in this field, export the file, and then
open the file with a text editor and replace the text with the appropriate
15-digit State Tax ID. Alabama, Georgia, Hawaii, Nebraska, New Jersey and
New Mexico do not require a State ID for 1099-MISC filing, so this field
should be left blank in these states. |

If you manually withheld federal income tax from vendor payments, enter that amount in this field. The system will generate a dollar amount for this field if the "amount indicator" is "4" in the Vendors. |

Select the checkbox if notified twice within the past three years that the vendor or customer's taxpayer identification number is incorrect. |
