Important Information
- The Tax ID on a Customer company record is the number used for sales tax on Estimates and Orders. It is separate from a vendor's federal tax form.
- The vendor tax ID is the EIN, FEIN, or Social Security number on the vendor's W-9. That number stays on the uploaded Vendor Compliance Document.
- The Purchase Orders section on the vendor record lists each Purchase Order Total and Status. Use that history, with your accounting software, when you prepare 1099 amounts. Reports also includes Purchase Orders Detail.
- When a required document is missing or expired, the vendor shows a banner that required documents are missing or expired. Purchase Order stays unavailable until the document is current.

Tracking Vendor Payments
Vendor spending in CoreBridge EVO is tracked through Purchase Orders. On the vendor record, the Purchase Orders section lists each Purchase Order with its Total and Status. Balance shows the pending and open amounts. Reports also includes Purchase Orders Detail.
When your shop records vendor payments in an external accounting system, QuickBooks Online Detail Sync or Xero Detail Sync can include vendors and Purchase Orders when vendor sync is turned on. Use that activity in the accounting software for year-end tax work.
1099 Reporting
CoreBridge EVO keeps the vendor tax form on the compliance document and the order amounts on Purchase Orders. The 1099 form itself is prepared in your accounting software or with your tax preparer.
