Change orders are usually amendment contracts that get signed. I work with a contractor, I usually just adjust the estimate and create a new one with the changes.

If it is a deduction, you can deduct from the estimate and have the client sign off on again. Progress invoicing should be fine if you're using as long as you didn't already invoice and collect the money, then you need to create a credit.

However, I still recommend reaching out to your accountant for additional insights on how to manage this in QuickBooks. They possess the expertise to ensure your financial records remain accurate and can help minimize errors, ultimately supporting more informed decision-making.
Additionally, QuickBooks provides various reports that can help you monitor the work added by your client. You can easily customize these reports to ensure you receive the specific data you need. For more details, I've included this helpful article: Customize Reports in QuickBooks Online.
