Hi there, @Speelmon.

 

You'll have to create to set up a job cost in QuickBooks so that it will appear in the Profit and Loss as labor cost. There will be no labor cost if there's no expense generated from the timesheet. I'll show you how to set up job costing in QuickBooks.

 

First, set up a customer for each of your jobs. Here's how:

  1. Go to the Customers menu, select the Customer Center toolbar.
  2. Click New Customer & Job.
  3. Select New customer.
  4. In the Customer Name field, enter a unique name or code for this customer to make it easier to identify.
  5. Enter other necessary details.
  6. Select OK.

 

Then, assign the billable time to the job. Please refer to the detailed steps in this article: Tracking job costs in QuickBooks Desktop

 

Furthermore, I'd like to share this article to help you customize your report effectively in the future: Understand reports.

 

I'll be a few clicks away if you need further assistance or if you have other questions. I'd be happy to answer them for you. Have a wonderful day.
