    • You can submit a job to run a specific Copy or you can submit a single job to generate all Copies (B, C, 1 & 2).  Copy A has not yet been implemented and will be done on a later Jira issue.
    • Anyone who previously had access to 1099s will have access to the new jobs.

    • It's worth noting that our 1099 changes are ongoing and therefore are not yet complete.  It will be noted in future release notes when all of our planned 1099 print changes have been completed.
  • New parameters were added to the IRS Form 1099 Submission Configuration under the heading "Job Parameters"  These must be populated here to apply to the documents created by the jobs.  If populated here they will also apply to the 1099 Extract UI.  Those fields are:

      • Exclude Vendors With No Tax Id
      • Approved for the combined Federal/State Filing Program
