How do I track a 1099 payment made outside of Found?

Paying contractors with cash, check or other methods outside of Found is a common occurrence for many business owners. When payments like these are made, it’s important to make sure you add those details to Found so that 1099s issued at the end of the year reflect these payments too. To accomplish this, follow these steps:

On Mobile

1. Tap the Activity icon at the bottom of the screen.
2. Click the + button and tap ‘Enter expense manually’
3. Enter the payment details, including the amount and, in the Purchased From field, the name of the contractor.
4. Tap the Category row and select ‘Contractor services’, then tap Add.
5. Tap the newly created expense and then tap the ellipses icon.
6. Tap ‘Mark as 1099 payment’ and choose the contractor to associate the payment with.
