1099 Report Writer Form: Change Amount format to include commas

This question is answered

Our CFO would like the 1099's to print with commas.  When I looked at report writer, it was not intuitively obvious as to how to change the field to a different format.

Thank you.

  • The Forms 1099 should not include commas. The IRS sets the format. Your CFO would invalidate all of your 1099s if he/she wants commas. Here's an example straight from the IRS instructions:
