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!

    We removed this utility. It was intended to be run for the 1099s printed in year 2020. It should have only been run if you entered data based on 2019 1099 boxes before the 1099 NEC code changes were completed. The warning was very specific. If your customer is at version 2018PU10, you should not be running this utility. It will corrupt the data. If you are at an older version of 2018, you may need to contact support for guidance.
