Configuring AP 1099 Types

AP 1099 Types is the master list of 1099 form types your database can assign on vendor records. Year-end selection uses the type (plus box and tax ID fields) on each vendor. Types on this form do nothing by themselves until vendors are flagged and assigned in AP Vendors.

Vista commonly ships MISC. Add INT, DIV, NEC, or other types when vendors need those forms. Confirm against the forms you actually file. This article stays on the type list and vendor assignment; IRS box mapping and NEC nuances belong on Processing AP 1099 Forms (and accountant guidance).

:::caution Global form AP 1099 Types is environment-global. A change affects every company on the database. Coordinate before editing. :::

Before you start​

  • Know which 1099 form types your vendors require for the filing year (capability check against the vendor mix, not a fixed starter list).
  • Remember this form is global across every company on the same system.
  • Have permission to maintain global AP setup forms.
  • Plan to complete type, box, and tax ID fields on each 1099 vendor in AP Vendors after types exist.

Steps​

Review and maintain the type list​

  1. Open AP 1099 Types.
  2. Review the types already loaded. MISC is commonly present on new systems.
  3. Add any missing types your vendors need (for example INT, DIV, or NEC). Do not invent IRS box crosswalks on this form; keep box-level detail on the processing article.

Assign types on vendors​

  1. On each 1099 vendor in AP Vendors, assign:

    • The correct 1099 type from this list
    • Box and tax ID (and related country reporting) fields the vendor form requires

    Types alone do not select a vendor for year-end. The vendor must be flagged and fully assigned.

  2. Use Processing AP 1099 Forms for the year-end run. Keep this article setup-only.

Notes​

  • Vendors not flagged for 1099 (or missing type / tax ID setup) will not appear correctly in 1099 processing.
  • Because the form is global, coordinate changes with other companies on the same system before add, rename, or delete.
  • Field Definitions for this form were only partially available during Trimble review. Do not treat this article as a full IRS box map.
