Buy nowWe are a plumbing company and need a report that shows employees time by the customer/project. We originally set up categories for each of our groups, which help with our annual audit because we are charged based on our payroll and it's divided between commercial and residential jobs. So my categories are very specific. Last week, when I finished keying in timesheets for the week, even though I selected specific categories, my report is showing "Hours" which we do not ever use and I've even labeled it "do not use" so it's not accidentally selected from the drop down (because QBO won't let me delete or make inactive). If you look at the 2 screenshots, you can obviously see I chose my categories but the report is showing what I didn't choose. I spent over an hour on support and the only success is to do a work-around but that doesn't solve the mystery of why or how to fix it. Just thought I'd see if anyone else had a suggestion. Support originally wanted me to delete all my categories and then create new ones. That would mean re-entering 6 months of timesheets which I'm not interested in doing.
We hear your sentiments and appreciate your troubleshooting efforts in resolving your concern. Let me chime in and provide information about this matter.

You can always get back to us anytime if you need further assistance handling your time entries and reports in QuickBooks Online. We're available to help you. Have a good one.
I've already talked to support but not sure I was "added to the list of affected users" so how do I verify that?
Sometimes, I think QBO support must get paid by the # of replies they post on here because the last sentence of "We're available to help you. Have a good one." is patronizing since we've been attempting to get this problem fixed for over a week. It's interesting that I can get 5 phone calls in a week attempting to get us to upgrade our other company from desktop to online but I cannot get a phone call back when the program doesn't do what it's supposed to do. I've wasted entirely too much time attempting to get this problem fixed. So @SirielJeaB your reply is not helpful and does not answer my original question I posted to the community.
Thanks for getting back here in the thread, @mccallconstruct.

Well I've now been in chat support for over an hour again as I re-explain it all from the beginning. It doesn't seem to matter that I've got my original case # or not. It's simply a matter of "what I input does not match what the report puts out" . . . seems like a simple enough explanation. If support chat was allowed to receive screenshots, it really seems like the language barrier could be crossed sooner.
