Running Profit Loss reports that include employee time

You cannot get payroll costs to the job level unless you use QuickBooks payroll.  You only other option is to break down the entry used to record your payroll down to the job level.

I have QB payroll and this function still does not work, unless you import all the time to an invoice. Most of our work is lump sum fees so I can't do that, but I still need to track profit/loss using time.  This is a big gap that QB has always had but will never fix.  :(

The only way I have found to do it is run a time by job detail report, export it to excel, then manipulate the data there to find out your time costs.  Then you can add them to other costs that QB does record.  EXTREMELY time consuming and annoying!

Are you using quickbooks desktop or online? I never had a problem with my desktop but my latest version was 2017. Online you must have the "Billable" preference checked in preferences or settings. Maybe they changed that in desktop as well. Good luck
