Print items in group that are hidden

I can help you with generating a report that suits your needs, @whighfill.

I recommend generating the customized Job Estimates vs. Actuals Detail report for this. 

Here's how to run the report

1. Go to the Reports menu, then hover on Jobs, Time & Mileage. 
2. Select Job Estimates vs. Actuals Detail.
3. Click the Customize Report button and then proceed to the Filters tab.
4. Under Current Filter Choices, highlight Name.
5. From the dropdown menu, select All customers/jobs.
6. Under Display, uncheck all of the boxes except Est. Revenue and Act. Revenue. 
7. Click OK. 

This will show a detailed view of your revenue from your items. You can click on the amounts to show the transactions.

I've added this link about customizing customer, job, and sales reports in QBDT: Customize customer, job, and sales report.

Let me know in the comment section below if you have additional questions about estimates and other reports. I’ll get back to answer them for you. Have a great rest of the day!

Thanks. I am very familiar with the Job Estimate vs Actual Details report. The problem with it is that it does not show the quantity, which is one of the things I originally said that I needed. So I can't print (or pdf) the report and have it off to the side to quickly refer to while I build a new estimate. I would have to continually toggle back and forth and drill into each individual line item to get the quantities. That's inefficient.

Hi there, @whighfill.

Being able to run a report that shows the quantity of each item in a group used in estimates would be helpful and efficient. In the meantime, you'll have to open each estimate to see each details. I'll make sure to relay this message to our team in concern here on my end and add your vote for this one.

I have the same issue - it seems like it would be so simple to print out a detailed Estimate for internal use - as it's clear as day on the computer screen.  I don't understand why this isn't an option.
