Error: there are no 1099 forms to print

Scenario

You may get the following error message when you try to print Form 1099.
Error message
There are no 1099 forms to print.

Cause

The likely causes are:
  • There are no transactions for the vendor
  • Printing thresholds prevent printing.

Solution 1: no transactions for the vendor

To populate Form 1099, you need to do one of the following:
  • Select
    Actions
    , then
    Enter Transactions
     and enter transactions for the vendor with a 1099 distribution; or
  • Select
    Actions
    , the
    Edit Payroll Tax Forms
     and override the1099 form manually.

Solution 2: printing thresholds

The threshold is an amount below which you do not want to print 1099s for a client. A threshold of
0.00
 means you've set no threshold, and 1099s will print with any non-zero amount on them.There is a hierarchy of 3 thresholds:
  • For the global threshold, select
    Actions
    ,
    Process Payroll Tax Forms,
     then
    Print Options
    .
  • For the client-level threshold, select
    Setup
    ,
    Clients
    ,
    1099 Forms
    . In the
    Threshold Amount
     column, add a printing threshold for each 1099 type.
  • For the transaction-level threshold, select
    Actions
    ,
    Enter Transactions
    , a transaction with 1099 distributions, then the ellipsis button.
