Hi, I have questions regarding backup withholding:

1. I created an OTHER CURRENT LIABILITY acct called Backup Withholding so that when the contractor's bill is created the tax withheld goes there. After the check is written to the contractor, I need to pay that tax to the IRS.  Once I pay the IRS, that Backup Withholding acct is zeroed out.  Now that it's $0, how does that calculate for the contractor's 1099 at the end of the year?

 

2.  I entered 1 bill for the contractor & list it as you described to "Allied3" with the full amt in the Contractor's Expense acct (+) & the tax withheld in the Other Current Liability acct (-). Only the expense acct prints on the contractor's check stub. How do I get all accts to show on his stub so he can see what that deduction is?  He's not "payroll", but a vendor.

Thanks!
