Hi there, @rbrock4. I'd be glad to share insights about viewing your contractor's Social Security number (SSN) in QuickBooks Online (QBO). 

 

Before we proceed, can you tell me which section of QuickBooks are you trying to view these details? 

 

If you're only seeing their SSN's last four digits on the Personal details section, then the option to show it all is unavailable under this page. However, I can provide another workaround to view its complete numbers. All you have to do is to prepare their 1099s and go to step three. Here's how:
 

  1. Go to Payroll and select Contractors.
  2. Click Prepare 1099s.
  3. Select Continue your 1099s.
  4. Click Next until you reach step three. 

 

From there, you can take note of their tax ID and continue with your task.

 

I've also included these resources for additional reference in managing your contractors in QuickBooks. 

 

 

Please let me know if you have any other concerns regarding SSN numbers in QuickBooks. Remember, we're here to help you if you need further assistance related to QuickBooks. Stay safe!
