Thank you for your detailed instructions - However, when I follow them they do not work as intended,
I have three businesses Insurance Agent, Trade Show Services, Safe Boating Instructor, and my wife has one business Bookkeeping.
I so far have one 1099-NEC for Insurance Agent so on the "Here's the Business Info we have so far" I clicked Edit to add that 1099-NEC, then update against "Business Income"then update against 1099-NEC Income (initially showing 0 for 2020 ) On the Lets get the Info from your 1099-NEC page, the Payee field is already populated with one of the payees for my wifes BOOKKEEPING business which has nothing to do with my Insurance Agency business, I can overtype with the Insurance Agency related 1099-NEC (NAME, PAYERS TIN, AND AMOUNT)
Clicking continue, business Income looks right.
So I now go to Bookkeeping business to add/edit her 1099-NECs
A box appears that has a number 2 in it. if I click on it it shows the 1099-NEC detail for the 1099-NEC info for the Insurance Agency income I just entered above - nothing to do with Bookkeeping! If I "delete" it, and then add the two 1099-NEC's I have so far for her business I get the correct income (so far) for Bookkeeping. BUT
the income on my one 1099-NEC for Insurance Agent is no longer showing up on the income for that business. So I page through the NEC's shown, using "continue" add the ONE 1099-NEC for Insurance and NOW all 1099-NEC are moved to Insurance - none against Bookkeeping.
What on earth am I doing wrong!
