Show Columns on Profit & Loss Statement

Hello - I was curious if it was possible to customize the Profit & Loss statement so that the "Show Columns" filter/splicer could be adjusted to show my 'Job Type List' items.

 

Each job that we create, we assign a Job Type to it, and it would be very helpful if the Profit & Loss report could show columns which detail the activity each period by the Job Type list category.    

 

I see there is the ability to 'Filter' the Profit & Loss Report by single or multiple Job Types within the Filters Tab.... however, this does not provide the comparative activity in a side-by-side column format that I am looking to obtain.   

 

I am curious if it is possible to customize the "columns across the top" to include the Job Type List category?Job Type List.JPG
