I'm guessing you didn't do anything wrong.  Based on other posts here, it's probably due to the fact that the software isn't running at peak performance.

I have experienced the same problem.  This only seems to apply to the new form 1099-NEC.  1099-MISC work correctly. Currently using version 2020.1.03.

Good Afternoon powellrh1,

This is a known issue to be resolve with the next update, we are expecting that update by the end of the week. It should only be affecting the 1099-NEC form, please reply to this thread if you have experienced this with other 1099s. 

Thank you for your post in the Accountants Community!
