Can Namely produce a 1099 for a contractor paid outside of Namely Payroll?

Yes, we can produce a 1099 for a contractor paid outside of Namely Payroll. We recommend processing payment for 1099 employees throughout the year in Namely Payroll for easier tracking and record keeping, but if you have been paying contractors outside of Namely Payroll, you can enter their wages at any point prior to 12/31, and Namely will process a 1099 for them.

When processing their payment, click Edit next to the employee's name on Step 2 of payroll and select Override for Printable Check to prevent paying them for a second time.
