Welcome back, @Local Electrician.
I'll share some insights about tracking jobs and hours worked without using payroll in QuickBooks Desktop (QBDT), so you can keep your financial data accurate and updated.
For the time being, the only option to track the hours worked and what job your employees were on is to input the time into the weekly timesheet. This way, the hours are tracked for each job on the profit and loss report.
However, since those expenses are being brought into QBDT each time your bank accounts sync, they'll be accounted for twice in your reports. With this, you may opt to stop inputting the data into the weekly timesheet and check out for a third-party application to do it for you (tracking your timesheets and reports).
If you wish to learn more about tracking expenses for a job in QBDT, you can read this article: Track job costs in QuickBooks Desktop.
Also, you may want to check out one of our Help pages as your reference to guide you in managing your business growth and transactions using QBDT: QuickBooks Learn and Support. It includes help articles, Community discussions with other users, and video tutorials, to name a few.
Please don't hesitate to keep me posted in the comments if you have other reporting and job-tracking concerns in QBDT. I'm always here to help. Take care, and I wish you continued success, @Local Electrician.
