I think this belongs in the Sage 300 CRE forum.

Hi @sh2os,

Since it looks like you are using Sage 300 CRE, I am going to move this post to that Support Group so that other users of this software will see it and can offer you their thoughts and insight.

Thanks,

We have many subcontractors that do not received 1099's, ie. Corporations.

The 1099 tab is a separate set up and tracking.

Stephanie, 

The Vendor Type setup (Subcontractor, Material Supplier, G&A, Misc, etc.) allows you to individually customize the Distribution Entry screen for the various Vendor types you setup. For example, there may be a class of vendors that are never coded to a job, cost code and category, so you could configure that vendor type to not display columns that you will always need to tab through until you get to a column that matters, such as GL account.  

Whether a vendor is subject to Form 1099 reporting is configured on a separate tab of the vendor setup screen, and is individualize for each specific vendor, regardless of vendor type.  On that 1099 tab is where you check a box to indicate that they should receive a Form 1099 and also enter their Social Security number of Federal Tax ID number for reporting.

Hope this helps.
