1099-MISC and 1099-NEC - Due to customer request, we have returned Box 7 as an option to select in Payables/Configure/Vendors "Report on 1099". If your Vendors were previously configured for Box 7, this upgrade will return the Vendor setup as it was. Please note that there is not an amount that goes in Box 7 on the 1099-NEC or the 1099-MISC. If you have Box 7 entered it will go in Box 1 on the 1099-NEC.

Please note Deluxe Tax Forms are no longer supported.

NOTE: This upgrade contains some adjustments to the 1099-NEC layout for Pre-printed forms. If you worked with a technician or received an adjustment file from us, this upgrade will replace those files. If you would like to keep your forms as they are, copy the following files to a safe location from your C21/Reports folder:

ap1099necamazon.tcl
ap1099necdynamicsystems.tcl
ap1099necofficedepot.tcl

After installation is complete, return the files to the C21/Reports folder and replace the new files from this upgrade. If you require assistance, please send us a Problem Report in Help/Submit Problem Report.

1099-MISC and 1099-NEC - Box 7 had been removed in Version 8.5.14 since it is no longer supported. Version 8.5.15 puts the box back so you do not need to update your Vendors if you are printing 1099-NECs as any Box selection puts the amount in Box 1 on the 1099-NEC.

Enhancements in 8.1.03

    Direct Deposit - Some banks require a specific letter or number in front of the Immediate origin ID in the NACHA file for upload. A new box, 'Immediate origin ID prefix,' is now provided directly beneath the Immediate origin ID in Payroll/Configure/Company Information a specific digit or letter is required. If you leave the box blank, a '1' will be recorded in the prefix space.

    1099-NEC - For tax year 2021, the IRS has redesigned Form 1099-NEC to three forms per page rather than two forms as in 2020. You will now see three sections for 1099-NEC recipients per form but you may need to make adjustments based on the pre-printed form you are using. Check System/Customize Reports and Forms and then Preview the form in Payables/Print/1099-NEC to make these adjustments before printing on your actual forms. Right-click to show all guide lines. Print out your 1099-NEC with the adjustments on blank paper against your pre-printed form to be sure that all data lines up correctly. DO NOT SAVE YOUR CHANGES. You cannot save the changes you make to this form. If you need assistance with this process, please send us a Problem Report from the Help menu and enter the type of form and the supplier in the description box. We will also need your company data which can be sent from Help/Send Company Data to 21st Century Accounting.

    Receive Credit Card Payments - A bug existed in the Sales/Receive Credit Card Payments module that prevented discounts from posting to associated Discount GL accounts. This bug was not rectifiable so the Discounts option has been removed from the module.

    Help - Additional Help items added.

21st Century Accounting Version 8.0.05

The 8.0.05 21st Century Accounting Upgrade can be installed on both the US and Canadian versions of 21st Century Accounting. Installing the Upgrade will bring your 21st Century Accounting to the 8.0.05 version level.

Enhancements in 8.0.05

    1099-NEC - If you have vendors set up to be recorded on a 1099, you will also be able to produce the data for the 1099-NEC. Box 1 of the 1099-NEC is supported and will be filled in regardless of which 1099 Box you have elected in Payables/Configure/Vendors. To produce the data for Box 1 on your pre-ordered 1099-NEC form, go to Payables/Print/1099 NEC. If you need to adjust the placement of the Box 1 amount to suit your pre-ordered forms, check Customize Reports and Forms in the System menu. When you preview the form in 1099 NEC, you can move the blue lines to adjust the placement.

    2020 Form 1096 - Changes to the 1096 for 2020 include the addition of a box designated 1099-NEC (71) for Vendors that require the Form 1099-NEC. C21 does not support more than one box on the 1096, however, there is a workaround for the 1099-NEC Box on the 1096.

  1. Go to System and check 'Customize Reports and Forms.'
  2. In Payables/Print/1099 Payments, preview or print a report for the year to see which Box is checked for your Vendors.
  3. In Payables/Print/1096s, select the Vendors that required the 1099-NEC form (Box 7 with this update). Click Browse next to Selected Vendors and check any Vendors that required this form. See the 1099 Payments report if you are unsure.
  4. Click Preview.
  5. If you hover over the X that would normally go in the 1099-MISC Box, you will see blue lines appear that turn red when you click on them. Click the lines and drag the X over so that it will line up inside the 1099-NEC box on whatever preprinted form you are using. We recommend that you print it out on a blank piece of paper and line it up before printing on your form. When you close out of the Preview, if you do not save, the X will return to the original position.
