1096

Posted on by 10
We implemented Business Central a few months ago and prepared our first batch of 1099's.  The 1096 (the 1099 submission to the IRS) is due at the end of the month, but we can't figure out how to run the report.  It's my understanding that the 1096 has to be filed electronically because we issued more then ten 1099's.  Has anyone filed the 1096 electornically yet, and is there a special program that needs to be enabled to generate the electronic file for submission to the IRS?
 
Thanks, Kevin

    Hi,
     
    To generate the electronic file for submitting the 1096 form to the IRS, you need to enable the "Form 1096" extension in your Business Central environment. Here are the steps to enable the extension:
    After enabling the extension and setting up the required fields, you can go to 1096 Forms to create a new 1096 form.
    As mentioned, you can follow the steps in the reference Document:
    Best Regards,
    Judy

    Thanks for the response.  It looks like the extension instructions all reference "printing" the 1096.  Would you know if it also allows for creating the electronic file that must be submitted?
     
    Thanks,
