Job Estimates vs. Actual reports

I would like to run a report that shows the Job Estimates vs. Actual that has separate columns for each estimate or change order.  The end result I would like to have is a report that shows our beginning estimate, any new estimates (meaning we adjusted our #'s along the way) and a total.

Thank you for your response, however I can not find any information in this article that indicates how to show what I am needing.  I would like to run a Job Estimate vs Actual that has a separate columns for each estimate.  If I need to combine reports or create a custom I am willing to do so, however not sure how to do so

Thanks

Thank you.

 
I'm working under invoicing, customers and estimates in Quickbooks online. I have accessed the estimate v actuals reports from various different avenues i.e. estimates, the two reports that you mentioned and am having the same report pop up, which is the one i want, but the issue is how to get the "invoiced" and "remaining" columns to print.
 I have an estimate that I have invoiced off of.  The estimate showing on screen details the estimated amount, what has been invoiced and the remaining amount to be invoiced.  BUT, this won't print as is shown on screen, nor can i select these missing items to print.  Here is a screenshot of what I'm seeing
