Use this article when you need to generate 1099 data for suppliers paid through Accounts Payable and either keep those 1099s in A/P or transfer them into Human Resources for combined year-end processing.
For HR-Based 1099s and combined processing, see Processing 1099s in RFMS.
Generate A/P 1099 Information
| Step | Action Items |
|---|---|
| 1. Review Supplier Records |
☐ Go to Accounting > File > Accounts Payable > File > Supplier Maintenance. ☐ Verify each supplier’s Name, Address, and Tax ID (EIN or SSN). ☐ Check Do Not Print Tax Document for suppliers who should not receive a 1099 (such as corporations). |
| 2. Open the A/P 1099 Utility | ☐ Go to Accounting > File > Accounts Payable > File > End of Year > Generate A/P 1099 Information. |
| 3. Set Generation Options |
☐ Select the correct Tax Year. ☐ (Optional) Enter a Minimum Gross Amount to exclude suppliers below the reporting threshold (for example, $600). ☐ Use the Has Tax ID checkbox to filter for suppliers with valid Tax IDs. Uncheck it to identify missing or incomplete IDs. |
| 4. Generate and Review the Edit Listing |
☐ Run the process to create the preliminary A/P 1099 Edit Listing report. ☐ Review totals and supplier information for accuracy. ☐ Correct any supplier data, then rerun the process if needed. |
| 5. Finalize A/P 1099 Data | ☐ Once verified, regenerate with Has Tax ID checked to create the finalized 1099 data set. |
| 6. Transfer A/P 1099 Data to HR |
☐ Go to Accounting > File > Human Resources > File > End of Year > Transfer A/P 1099 Information. ☐ This moves finalized A/P 1099 data into the HR module for printing and electronic filing. Note: Converting a 1099-NEC to a 1099-MISC in Accounts Payable |
| 7. Verify and Print |
☐ Open Browse W-2/1099 Information in HR to confirm totals. ☐ Follow the steps in Printing Year-End Tax Forms to generate and distribute supplier 1099 forms. |
Notes
- Do Not Print Tax Document prevents generating forms for suppliers that are exempt from 1099 reporting.
- The Has Tax ID options is helpful for finding suppliers missing a Tax ID. Run the process once with it unchecked to identify gaps, then rerun it with it checked to finalize valid records.
- The Minimum Gross Amount filter can be used to automatically exclude small-sum suppliers.
- Transfer A/P 1099 Information is required before printing or e-filing - A/P 1099 data cannot be submitted directly from A/P.
- Supplier year-to-date totals are not reset as a part of this process.
Next Steps
After transferring the finalized A/P 1099 data to HR:
- Return to Processing 1099s in RFMS to complete the remaining steps — reviewing, editing, and validating all 1099 records.
- Once all records are verified, continue to Printing Year-End Tax Forms and Year-End Electronic Filing & AccuWage to generate and submit your final forms.
