In the Job and Category Profit and Loss Statements, for some reason they do not have Level Reporting. The standard P&L does have various levels of reporting, but not the ones that for Jobs or Categor...
Need to be able to run a Job Profit and Loss report by 'HEADER' job within MYOB? Can only run a P&L by 'DETAIL' Job. The information is all there, but frustratingly, the Header job's do not appear in the jobs list when running a Job Profit and Loss. Have to manually tick each detailed job and this extremely slow when there are many jobs, and more importantly, prone to errors in case jobs are incorrectly missed.
"Job Profit and Loss By Job Header"
I'm having the exact problems and saw your post while I was creating a new post. What is the point of having "Header Job" when you can't filter by it.
Also when I review job list, the system groups the detail jobs under each header job. This is good but not good enough. First I CAN'T "exclude inactive jobs"; second, I can't sort the job list by Header Job then by their NAME, it's defulted to Job number. You have the group function but it's either grouped by Job number or Job name, it doesn't really help when I want to group them by header jobs then sort each group by Job number or Job name.

I just did a YouTube video for you that shows a report in Excel that auto updates with Job Numbers and dynamically changes when you add new Job Numbers to your MYOB data file.

I agree, trying to run detail job reports but also a sumarry to see all data - quite frustrating I can see this info only in the Jobs list with no way to adjust the $$ v date.
Another update without adding 'Job Headers' in filter lists when running Profit and Loss Reports!! Very disappointing.
All Filter Lists that include 'Job Numbers' should also include the option of filtering by 'Job Headers'.
MYOB would be so much more powerful for its users. You should then be able to drill down to transactional level as in Job Profit and Loss Statement.
Any other option, (eg Excel spreadsheets) is either laborious, open to error, and does not drill down to transactional level. Customising financial reports by Job Header are also not a viable option as these need to be continuously updated with every new Job.
I am yet to find an add on that can address all these issues. The information required is already in myob!! We just need to be able to access it when running financial reports.
It rather makes me wonder why HEADER jobs were created if you cannot report by them ...
All the Accounts/Jobs reports need to be updated to allow a filter by HEADER - except of course the Job List report, which contains all Jobs in the System
