1099 Formatting

(0) ShareShare

Posted on by Community Member

When printing 1099 from SL, everything is lined up perfectly except the Payer's name and address block.

Can somebody please tell me where I go to fix this formatting?

I would appreciate any help at all.

Thank you very much.

    If I understand your question right, you will need to pickup report 03740.rpt from the AP folder under your SL installation folder and copy it to the USR_Rpts folder.  You might have a letter after the 03740 depending what you have setup/installed.  From there you can edit in in Crystal reports.  Of course, you need to make sure you have the latest version of 03740.rpt.  Information is provided as is, good luck.

    As Charlene indicates, you will have to edit it in Crystal Reports.  This is not unusual as different printers and even different printer drivers will impact how a form is printed.  You also may see differences in how the 1099 forms themselves are printed and even cut.

    The only thing I might add is that the 03740L.rpt report in the AP folder will be read only.  After you copy it to usr_rpts, you should un-mark it as read only.

    In addition, the year end updates will install the new 03740L.rpt into the AP folder.  so if you have a copy in usr_rpts, the new copy will not be used as the system will run the usr_rpts copy.  So, if the 1099 has changed, and you have a copy in the usr_rpts you will need to delete it and use the new copy from the updates.

    I do not understand why this is not working.  I am editing the 03740 report in user reports, saving it, and there is absolutely no change.  I notice yours is 03740L and mine does not have the "L" is that the problem?  thank you!

    Each format is a separate Crystal Reports file.  Go Into Reports Control Maintenance in Administration and pull up 03740 and you will see a list of formats.  The report file name will correspond to the physical file.  i.e. 03740L = 03740L.rpt  

    When you run the report, if the report format field is enabled then there are more than 1 format. If there is only 1 format it will be disabled. Make sure that you are editing the same report you are running.  I.E. if the report control shows only 1 format (which it does from version 7 and later) then note the report File name.  That's the file you want to be editing.

    If that file existing in usr_rpts that is the one you want to be editing as if it exists in that location, that is the one that will get run.
