1099-NEC question

SOLVED

I have read about the utility to move 1099-MISC data to the 1099-NEC boxes.

I have a few questions.

1. Can the utility be processed at any time?

2. Is it best to run the utility at year-end, after 2020 entries and before 2021?

3. If the utility is run in 2021, will it affect both 2020 and 2021 1099 data?

Just trying to determine the best practices for using this utility.

Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!

    Please see my comments above about the details of the original AP_Update1099s_utl utility. It was a one time utility meant to be run once before you entered 2020 1099 data. If you want to add misc box 7 data to existing NEC box 1 data, use the new AP_1099MISC7_utl utility. That can be run multiple times.

    So the original utility should have only been run if no 2020 1099 data existed and the new AP_1099MISC7 should be run if 2020 1099 data already exists under misc box 7? I think many of us ran the original utility with 2020 1099 data already being entered in the system and now are confused how to move forward with this new utility. It sounds like we will have to fix the open invoices manually?

    The new utility will move the open invoices for MISC box 7. There are documents for both utilities in the Sage100 Utility directory that might be helpful.
