1099-S Information

The 1099-S is used to report proceeds from real estate transactions. Like the 1099-R, we do not have a way of extracting this information from the General Ledger. However, you can input the information via the Payee Maintenance. Currently, the only option for the 1099-S is to create a transmittal file. There are not any print options available or error listings.
