1099 G/L Register

This table lists frequently asked questions about the 1099 G/L register, and their answers:

Question

Answer

The 1099 G/L Register (R04512) is printing accounts for only one form type. How can I include all types?

Verify that you set up AAI ranges for all form types. The character after PX controls which form type prints on the report, as illustrated:

  • PXAxxx-1099-MISC

  • PX1xxx-1099-DIV

  • PX6xxx-1099-INT

  • PXBxxx-1099-NEC

Verify that the AAI ranges are set up only for company 00000. Be sure that no blank object accounts exist. Do not overlap accounts over ranges. For example, do not skip ranges by setting up AAIs for range PXxx01 - PXxx02 and then skip to range PXxx05 - PXxx06.

Why isn't the 1099 legal name printing on the 1099 G/L Register? The legal name was defined correctly in the address book record.

The 1099 G/L Register is designed to print only the mailing name, but the Write Media program (P04515) prints the 1099 legal name above the mailing name.

I used alternate address book fields to combine data for different address book records, but when I run the 1099 G/L Register, the new address information does not print. Why?

The address information is not combined until you build the 1099 G/L Worktable (F045141) and the 1099 A/P Worktable (F045143). You can view the results that will appear on the 1099 forms before you run the Write Media program by running either the 1099 A/P Register (R04512FA) or the 1099 A/P - G/L Combined Register (R04512FB), and not the 1099 G/L Register.

When I run the 1099 G/L Register, nothing prints. Why?

Review the processing options. Also verify that the AAI ranges for PXxxxx include the correct accounts and are set up only for company 00000. If they are not set up correctly, the register prints without data.

If you use the G/L method and do not run the Update Payment Information program (R04513), the register prints without data.

Why is my 1099 G/L Register printing suppliers with amounts less than the IRS minimum requirements?

The 1099 G/L Register is designed to print information for all suppliers regardless of the total dollar amount you paid them. This allows for adjustments that you might make later. The Write Media program excludes suppliers that do not meet the minimum IRS requirements.

To print a report that includes only suppliers with amounts over the IRS minimum amounts, print the 1099 A/P - G/L Combined Register and define minimum amounts in the processing options.
