Question

In QuickBooks Online Projects, my Time Cost by Employee or Supplier report only shows data for a single month instead of the entire project duration. how for full year?

I would like this report to populate for the full year (e.g., all of 2025), so I can see cumulative time costs across the project. How can I set up QuickBooks so that the report reflects the whole year’s time entries, rather than limiting the view to just one month?

Welcome to the Community, @julianne4.

 

Please note that the Time Cost by Employee or Supplier report in the Projects section is grouped by employees assigned to the project, rather than by month.

 

Currently, there's no option to customize this report to display data in a monthly column or row. The breakdown of transaction dates automatically reflects in the Activity Date column. This covers the entire project period, costs, and time entries. From the day it started until it ends.

 

If, after reviewing the report, you notice that it only reflects one month of entries, you can click the Refresh button within the report. This action will prompt the system to display all transaction entries from 2025 for the project.

 

 

On the other hand, you can run the Time Activities by Customer Detail report and customize it properly to confirm if all the transactions for the project have been entered correctly. This report will also display all-time entries for the year.

 

Here's how:

 

  1. Go to the Reports section.
  2. Search for Time Activities by Customer Detail and select it.
  3. Navigate to the Customise tab. In the Data Filter section, set the fields as follows:
    • Customer
    • Equals
    • [Name of your project]

  4. Next, go to the Report Period section and adjust the date range to cover the project's start and end dates in 2025.
  5. The customized report will then appear below.

 

If you’d like to keep an external copy of this report for safekeeping, you can read it in this article: Export your reports to Excel from QuickBooks Online.
