How do I key the 1099 information for machine hire but not include the supplies such as chemicals?

We appreciate you reaching out here in the Community space, @Kaearl.

If you're referring to machines from a contractor or vendor, know that you can set them up inside QuickBooks Online (QBO) and track them for 1099. We'll gladly write down the steps to get you going:

1. Access your QuickBooks Online company.
2. Go to Expenses, then select Contractors.
3. Select Add a contractor
4. Enter your contractor’s info, or select the Email this contractor checkbox so they can fill it out.
5. When you're done, select Add contractor.

If you opted in for the email, wait for the contractor to fill out their info.

If you didn’t choose to send an email, here's how:

1. Select Add next to Personal details or Bank account and enter the contractor info.
2. When finished, select Save.

Also, BigRedConsulting is correct. If you used income or expense accounts for the checks, they should appear in your Profit and Loss report. If not, there's no option to modify the report to track and add them to the business report. 

We also recommend checking this page to help you learn more about what details can be seen inside the report: Why are my income and expense transactions missing from my Profit and Loss report?
