A vendor's 1099 decision is its own dated fact (files NEC or MISC, not reportable with its reason, or undetermined), applied by each payment's date. Payment methods are recorded; card and network payments are left out and listed; a member's check through financing counts; a bank payment with no method counts (D-40); $2,000 for payments after 2025. One worksheet for the tool, the viewer and the CPA package. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01T3gXMVt7XJPi6ens1or9Dj

A 1099 reports the payments the payer made to the payee in the calendar

expense, or a deposit returned) reduces what was paid. Money received from

the payee for anything else (its payment of the payer's invoice, a sale to
