Voyager setup for electronic submission of 1099 forms to recipients

How to set set a permission and load an optional package so that you can submit 1099 forms electronically from Voyager.

Updated this week

​You can submit 1099-NEC and 1099-MISC forms electronically through PHA Portal, Vendor Portal, or VendorShield Portal. This feature requires the following setup:

  1. Set a permission and load an optional package, as described in this article.

  2. Advise recipients to opt in through their portal. See Vendor opt-in for electronic receipt of 1099 forms.

Before you can submit 1099 forms to recipients electronically, you must set a permission and load an optional package.

To set the permission

  1. In Voyager 8 Admin, open the Set Permissions screen. A list of user groups appears.

  2. Select the group to which you want to grant permission.

  3. At the top of the screen for the group, select Search. A list of permissions appears.

  4. In the Search field at the top of the screen, enter "Voyager8 Enabled i1099" (without the quotation marks).

  5. If the entry in the Access column for Voyager8 Enabled i1099 is No Access, select the Edit button (looks like a pencil) next to that entry and then select Access from the dropdown that appears.

To load the optional package

  1. In Voyager 8 Admin, open the Load Optional Package screen.

    TIP: You can alternatively use Voyager 7 to load the package.

  2. In the Package Filename field near the top of the screen, enter "opt_ss_EnableE1099V8.pkg" (without the quotation marks).

  3. Select the Find button (about halfway down the screen, on the right).

  4. In the Optional Parameters Packages section that appears in the lower part of the screen, ensure that the checkbox to the left of the file name is selected.
