Remove Configurable Fieldsets from Projects

Objective

To remove configurable fieldsets from one or more projects in Procore.

Background

A configurable fieldset is a group of fields in certain Procore tools that can be set to optional, required, or hidden, depending on the needs of your company. This allows for better control over data entry when users create and edit items in Procore projects. See What are configurable fieldsets and which Procore tools support them?

If configurable fieldsets were previously applied to a project, you can choose to remove the custom configurations from that project. After a project has been deselected, the fieldsets will return to Procore's default fieldsets. If you want to delete a fieldset, see Delete Configurable Fieldsets.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
    • 'Admin' level permissions on the Company level Admin tool. 
  • Additional Information:
    • After a project has been deselected from the 'Assigned Projects' window, the fieldsets will return to Procore's default fieldsets.
    • Configurable fieldsets applied to projects will be reflected on both Procore's web and mobile applications.
    • To see which tools support configurable fieldsets, see What are configurable fieldsets and which Procore tools support them?

  5. Enter a name for the fieldset, then click Create.
  6. On the 'Edit Fieldset' page, each field name has the following options:

      OR
      Click the toggle to the OFF icon-toggle-off.png position to hide the field in the section.
      Note: A icon-toggle-on2.png icon indicates that the field is visible by default and cannot be changed to hidden.
    • Mark the 'Required' checkbox to designate the field as required.
      OR
      Clear the 'Required' checkbox to designate the field as optional.
      Notes:
      • Fields without a checkbox are optional by default and cannot be changed to required.
      • A gray marked checkbox icon-checkbox-marked-grayed-out.png indicates that the field is required by default and cannot be changed to optional.
  7. Optional: Click Create Section to create a new section.
    Note: This is only available for some tools.
    1. Enter the section name, then click Create.
  8. Optional: In the relevant section, click Add Custom Field.
  9. Click Save.
  10. In the 'Apply changes to [#] project(s)?' window, click Assign Projects to add the fieldset to projects.
    • In the 'Assign Projects' window, mark the checkbox next to each project you want to apply the fieldset to and click Update.
    • In the 'Apply changes to [#] project(s)?' window, click Confirm.
  11. Optional: To set a fieldset as the default for new projects, click the icon-ellipsis-options-menu.png icon at the end of its row on the 'Fieldsets' tab and select Set as New Project Default.
     Note
    Projects created from a project template that includes fieldsets will inherit the fieldsets from the project template instead of your company's default fieldsets. See Configure a Project Template.
