YTD Vendor Payment totals

When processing 1099s, it would be VERY helpful to have the Year to Date check box on Summary Vendor Reports (Reporting/Accounts Payable/ Vendors/ Report Type:Summary) to actually give me the Year to Date of the year I enter in the box. Currently, it overrides that year and gives me the year to date of the current year. The way it is formated is not intuitive, and should give me the option to provide a Year to Date summary of what was paid to each vendor in one lump total, as a 1-2 page report, instead of each payment made to each vendor, which could be 10 or more pages.
