Remove Custom Fields from Configurable Fieldsets

Objective

To remove custom fields from configurable fieldsets.

Background

Custom fields can be created for certain tools in Procore to allow for additional information to be filled out when creating or editing items. Similar to most fields in Procore, custom fields can be reported on in the Company and Project level Reports tools.

To better organize your fieldsets, custom fields can be removed from configurable fieldsets. See What are configurable fieldsets and which Procore tools support them?

Things to Consider

Required User Permissions:
- 'Admin' level permissions on the Company level Admin tool.
Additional Information:
- When custom fields are removed from a configurable fieldset that is applied to one or more projects, the custom fields will be removed from all of that fieldset's existing and new items within the projects.
- Removing a custom field from a configurable fieldset does not delete the data associated with that field from Procore.
- Removing a custom field from configurable fieldsets does not delete the custom field itself. See Delete Custom Fields.
