The 1099 information features are designed to help you organize and manage your 1099 vendors, as well as your accounts used for 1099 reporting. The following terms are used:
1099 forms are U.S. Federal tax documents with payment information for independent contractors, government payments, interest payments, etc.
1099-MISC forms are related but are used to report on miscellaneous income that 1099 forms do not usually cover.
1096 forms are used to total up all the 1099's and 1099-MISC forms in your database.
In xTuple ERP, 1099 form information is determined based on the combination of vendors marked as 1099 recipients and general ledger (GL) accounts marked to be included in 1099 amounts. For more information about working with 1099's in xTuple, please see the following article: https://www.xtuple.org/docs/1099-information-package.
The reports provided to support this feature were formatted to match preprinted forms available at Staples.
