estimated costs?

I have been creating estimates which capture what the estimated revenue to invoice will be, but I don't see how to create estimated costs associated with the job. When I create an estimate, and look at the Job Estimate vs Actual report, it shows the same amount in revenue and cost columns. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Everything that I've been able to find on WIP seems to relate exclusively to the construction industry. We are a consulting company that uses outside vendors. What I need to do is, at the start of each new project, be able to input the estimated payments to the vendors, as well as the amount we intend to bill to the client, so that I can anticipate our cash flow, as well as compare how much we thought we'd make to how much we actually do. I'm not sure that the info on sleetergroup.com is going to allow me to do this.

Thanks - Karen
