Job Expense Report - Actual and Future (Committed)

I am a contractor and have a Cost Plus Contract, in which at the end of every month, I need to submit a report showing all expenses I incurred for that month, as well as all committed costs I have for the future (subcontractor agreements). I understand there is a Committed Costs reports somewhere; however, I'm not able to find it. (I'm on QB Desktop 2018 - Accountant)

Any suggestions on creating a report such as this?

Job Expense Report - Actual and Future (Committed)

Hello there, @skoz5555.

 

We can run budgeting reports to assign future expenses/incomes for reporting and assume the future progress of the business.

 

Here's how:

  1. Go to the Company menu, and hover over Planning & Budgeting.
  2. Select Set Up Budgets, then click Create New Budget.
  3. Set the fiscal year for the budget, then choose either Profit and Loss and Balance Sheet.
  4. Select Next.
  5. If you select Profit and Loss, select either Create budget from scratch or Create budget from the previous year's actual data.
  6. Click Finish.

Once done, you can go to the Reports menu and select Budget and Forecasts to review.

 

Also, I've added this article for future reference in creating journal entry: Create a journal entry in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

Let me know if there's anything else you need. You can leave a comment below. I'd be right back to help you more!
