Things to Consider

Required User Permissions:
- 'Admin' level permissions on the Company Admin tool.

Steps

Navigate to the company's Admin tool.
Under 'Project Settings', click Defaults.
Click Create in each section to create the following :
1. Project Stages. See Add a Custom Project Stage.
2. Project Types. See Add a Custom Project Type.
3. Departments. See Add a Custom Department.
4. Programs. See Add a Custom Program.
5. Bid Types. See Add a Custom Bid Type.
6. Owner Types. See Add Custom Owner Types.
7. Regions. To learn more, see Add a Custom Project Region.
Under 'Advanced Settings', select or clear the following checkboxes:
- For New Projects, Show Line Items on Change Order PDFs. Place a mark in this checkbox, if you want Procore to automatically show line items of PDFs generated by the Change Orders tool (see Create a PDF of a Change Order). Note that for new projects, if the template project has this setting disabled, but the Company setting is enabled, the project template setting will be used for the new project.
- Include Store Number and Designated Market Area. Place a mark in this checkbox, if desired. By default, the checkmark is cleared from this box.
- Enable Docusign: Mark this box to enable Docusign on all of your company's projects (new and existing).
  Note: For new projects created from templates, the project template's Docusign setting will be used for the new project.
- Prevent Overbilling on All Projects. Mark this checkbox if you want to prevent commitment line item overbilling on subcontractor invoices.
  Note
  - This setting only applies to subcontractor invoices. It does NOT apply to owner invoices.
  - When this setting is enabled, it overrides any settings on the project's Commitments tool. See How do I prevent or allow overbilling on a subcontractor invoice?
