Can wire be summarized as one line item in a report, so instead of 50' wire x 12 wire types in this location, then 75' of 6 in this location? I would like clients to see a wire subtotal at end of report.

Also, could this report hide accessorized wires ie, Keypad with Liberty wire as an accessory not show up as an accessory, just show as part of summarized wire cost?

While I'm thinking of it, can programming labor be itemized at end of report seperately from all other labor, have one line installation/management labor which equals all job labor except programming, then a second for just programming.

I think you would have to create a custom report where the main report to always filter where categorytype does not equal wire and has a sub report that only shows wires.

This opens up a whole big can of complexities with regards to putting all those values back together for subtotals, etc. It can be done, but it would take a chunk of time and knowledge on your part to pull the pieces together.

Regarding your second point, there are a couple of changes in the next version that should allow you to accomodate that, but until they actually exist in the current release, there is no point in elaborating.

Again, I think this can be accommodated by doing some scripting. If I understand correctly, you're saying: Summarize all labor with the exception of labor in the Phase "Programming". Is that correct?
