With a job costing report can I see a details of each item purchased?

In the detail report I see each item and the total price for each item, but not broken down into quantities unless I go to each bill. Is there a way to generate a report?

 

Thank you

If data is input at the detail level, you should be able to see the detail.  Does Job cost report not show an option to see detail when you select report to run?

Let's customize the report to display the data you need, davidmatyas.

 

You can run the Job Costs Detail report and add the Item and Qty to the filters.

 

Here's how:

  1. Click Reports at the top, and then select Industry Specific.
  2. Choose Contractor Reports, and then select Job Costs Detail.
  3. From the report, click the Customize Report button in the upper left-hand corner.
  4. In the Display section, type Item and then Qty on the Search Columns box and check them.
  5. Click OK.

Once done, you'll see the two columns that you've added which shows the items used on each bill and their quantities.

 

Keep me posted if you have any follow-up questions on this. Thanks for dropping by.

Hi there, davidmatyas.

 

Thanks for joining this thread. Allow me to help you get the report you need in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

The Industry specific option when running reports is only available in QuickBooks Desktop Premier and Enterprise version.

 

Since you don't have this option, you might be using QuickBooks Desktop Pro version. No worries, with your version of QuickBooks, you can run the Job Profitability Detail. This report shows details of the each items you purchased and a lists costs and revenues for each item you billed to the customer.

 

Here's how:

  1. Go to Reports.
  2. Click Job, Time & Mileage.
  3. Choose Job Profitability Detail.

In case you'd like to customize the report, here's an article that you can refer: Customize reports in QuickBooks Desktop.

 

That should do it. If there's anything else you'd like to know more about managing reports in QuickBooks, feel free to reach back to me. I'm always happy to help.

I am using QB"S  Enterprise Contractor.

When I run Estimate vs Actual, I customize and add Source name.

Then I Sort by Source name.

How can I get the source name to show the total for EACH source, total is not an option.
