Non Employee Compensation table is either blank or does not display correctly in 1099 Payment History for calendar year 2021
Cause
<content>
The 1099 Default Calendar year was something earlier than 2020 when a user changed it to 2021. When changing the 1099 calendar year the following message displayed as the following, "The 1099 boxes for 2021 are not setup. Do you want to create them based on 2019?" (or any year earlier than 2020). If user said yes to this message, it created boxes with the Pre NEC filing option format. This most likely happens in Demo or test data where the last time 1099's were used was for year prior to 2020.
This is working as designed.

Resolution
<content>
1 Change default calendar year to 2020 in Accounts Payable Options.
2 Create a backup of the file SY_1099Setup.M4T in the MAS_System folder.
3 In Data File Display and Maintenance, go to SY_1099Setup.M4T and delete records for 2021 calendar year for each respective form code.
4 Go back into Accounts Payable Options and change the 1099 calendar Year from 2020 to 2021 and say Yes to the message, "The 1099 boxes for 2021 are not setup. Do you want to create them based on 2020?"
5 The tables should now be formatted correctly in 1099 payment history.
Alternate Resolution:
- Select File_Run from the Launcher Bar.
- In the Program field etner 'SY_1099Maint_ui' without the quotes and select OK
- In the Form 1099 Maintenance box, select the 1099 Form Type, Calendar Year, and Box ID.
- This will provide the Box Description and the box for Print on Form should be selected if the field is on the 1099.
