FAQ: I entered a name in the Additional Recipient Name field in the Vendor File; can I select the line in which this name appears on the 1099?

To specify if the name entered in the Additional Recipient Name field in the Vendor File prints first or second on the 1099, complete the 1099 Name Format field (located on the Miscellaneous screen in the Vendor File).  In the 1099 Name Format field, select the format of the fields to print as the recipient name on the 1099 form.  The format designates which fields (from the Vendor File) to print as the name on the 1099 and if there will be a second name for “Doing Business As” (those with DBA included in the format name) that will print as the second line of the recipient name.  For more details, refer to the 1099 Name Format Field topic in the Help File.
