Aloha,

This is my business Setup: I own a landscape maintenance business in Honolulu with two employees and approximately 20 consistent clients (accounts) that I bill every month at a flat fee to take care of their landscape maintenance.

I have Quickbooks Desktop PRO 2018 with Quickbooks payroll and I charge my accounts a monthly rate flat fee (no billable time). This information is very important because I do not check the box "Billable" when filling out the weekly time sheet, so the wages are not connected to each client.  I currently enter the time of each employee for each day as a non-billable item in a single row and run the payroll service every other week, write the checks, and pay the taxes and deposits as needed. That's all I do in regards to payroll. No class, etc.

My goal is to be able to generate a report for each client with the labor cost listed as an expense. I want to know what is the profit (or loss) from each account including the labor cost spent on them to determine which ones are the most profitable and efficient.

We do keep track of the time spent on each property. My employees fill out a form with the time spent in each client. But as I mentioned before, I have not categorized this in Quickbooks yet. I just input the hours per day (usually 8) in TimeSheet on a single line, and run the payroll.

Could someone please help me to get this setup in the most stream lined way as possible?

Thank you!
