How to set Vendor Tax ID and 1099 Eligibility in API? - quickbooks

Question

I'm currently using Consolibyte's PHP QB classes to interface with the QB api.
I've been successfully creating and updating Vendor's in QB for a while. However, we have a new requirement to use the API to store vendor's tax information.
I've tried to lookup the correct syntax to set these, but have been unsuccessful thus far.
My most recent attempt was:
$Vendor->setVendorTaxIdent($provider->taxId);
$Vendor->setIsVendorEligibleFor1099(true);
The rest of the information set gets updated properly, and the return from
$result = $VendorService->update($this->context, $this->realm, $provider->vendorId, $Vendor);
seems to indicate success.
Please let me know if you need anymore context. Thanks!

Have you referred to the documentation?
https://developer.intuit.com/docs/api/accounting/Vendor
The documentation indicates:
TaxIdentifier: String, max 20 characters
Vendor1099: Boolean
The geters and seters exactly mirror the documented fields. So unsurprisingly, you'll have these methods:
$Vendor->setTaxIdentifier($string);
$string = $Vendor->getTaxIdentifier();
And:
$Vendor->setVendor1099($boolean);
$boolean = $Vendor->getVendor1099();
If you continue to have trouble, make sure you post the XML request you're sending to QuickBooks. You can get this by doing:
print($VendorService->lastRequest());
print($VendorService->lastResponse());
