Vendor Information

Address

A vendor's address must be properly defined on the P/E Information (PEUPPE) page to print on the form.

For paper filings, the IRS supports only one line of address information. The 1099 process will use the last line of address information defined on the Addresses tab of PEUPPE. I.e., the postal/1099 mailing address must be the last line defined.

However, if filing using electronic media, the forms can contain up to four address lines including a line for the city, state, and ZIP code. If this is a foreign vendor, country will use one of the four available address lines.

BusinessPlus will extract these address lines from the bottom up, so Address Line 4 (if filled out) is printed first, then Address Line 3, etc.

If a PE ID has more than one address code defined, use Associated Code (4) in common code CK99/FILEINFO to define an address hierarchy. The hierarchy can be overridden by placing a preferred Address Code within the PEID's record on PEUPPE, Vendor tab, 1099, "1099 Addr" field.

The address printed on the 1099 form (and in the file created for the IRS) should be based on the address information provided by the Recipient on their W9 form.

If a vendor name is greater than 30 characters, the name will wrap into the "In Care of/Attention" or second payee name line.
