Question

Is there a way I can enter W9 information on a contractor instead of sending them the information email?

Yes of course, that is the way it was always done

edit the vendor record and enter the information you have from the W-9

 

Intuit created this contractor tab, but in reality there is no difference between a contractor and a vendor other than whether or not they require a 1099 at year end

I can enter the W9 information but QB will not let me create 1099s unless the vendor or contractor has entered their information themselves.  I can't get some of them to enter, they just sent me a copy of their W9.  How can I create 1099s for them?  It just ways waiting for info and won't let me process.

    Good to see you in the Community, @Bethf.

     

    You can create 1099s for your Vendor/Contractors by manually updating their information using the W9 as what @Rustler said. Non-employees are categorized in Box 7 since they are Vendors/Contractors.

     

    You can update their information by going to the Vendor menu.

     

    Here's how:

    1. Go to the Vendors menu and then select Vendors.
    2. Click the vendor's name and next hit Edit.

    3. Enter the Company, Complete name, Business ID No.(Tax ID No.), and address. (Note: please make sure that you follow the format indicated for tax ID)
    4. Click Save.

    There you can now prepare and file 1099s.

     

    If you want to E-file with the 1099 E-File Service, use this article as your reference: E-file through the 1099 E-File Service (QuickBooks Online).

     

    You can always get back through this post if there's anything else. I'll be glad to help. Take care!
