Corrected 1099 file

unknown

I need to file a correction on one 1099.  We went through the 1099 process and created the file for the IRS with only the corrected 1099.  The IRS rejected the file because position 6 of the "B" record did not contain a "C" or "G".  When I contacted Infor support I discovered that the Lawson process does NOT create a "corrected" file format.  They suggest I enter an enhancement request.  Has anyone needed to file a corrected 1099 and how did you do it?  Thanks.

Yes, we had the same issue. I eventually ended up calling the IRS and they deleted all the bad files and then I submitted the corrected 1099 manually. This wasn't easy either as you have to submit 2, one to zero out the incorrect one and then one that is correct. You also have to submit a 1096 along with it. I would definitely like to see an enhancement request done for this process. Let me know if I can help.
