The Payer Manager retains information on companies and employers who generate W-2 and 1099 information for your 1040, 1040A, and 1040-EZ clients. Once entered in the system, a payer is saved and can be quickly added to subsequent W-2s and 1099s from a convenient drop-down list.
To access Payer Manager and view payers:
From the Return Manager, click the Tools menu; then, select Payer Manager.
