Glad to see you here in the Community, @Irrigation20. I’ll be glad to assist you in sorting this issue about your contractors not showing up in QuickBooks Online.

There are a few reasons why a contractor won't appear on the report, and we'll go through them to see which one applies to your scenario.

First, you'll want to check if the Track payments for 1099 box is ticked in their profile.

Then, if you paid your contractors with a credit card, debit card, gift card or PayPal through your Payroll product account, you'll want to edit those transactions and use a different method like check or expense.

If the accounts you used on your vendor transactions are not mapped for 1099, then the transactions will not show on the report. This includes the accounts you used for your items. 

Here's how to map them:

1. Go to Expenses and click the Prepare 1099's button in the upper right-hand corner.
2. Set up your company information and click Next.
3. Place a checkmark in Box 7: Nonemployee Compensation checkbox.
4. In the drop list, select all the accounts you used in all your contractor transactions.
5. Click Next and click on Finish Later to finish the setup.
