Objective

To add Company Level 'Viewpoint® Vista™ Standard Cost Codes' to a 'Project Cost Codes' list in Procore.

Background

During the course of a construction project, commitments, and commitment changes orders are created. When this happens, you might need to add new phase codes to Viewpoint® Vista™. You will also need to add those phase codes to your Procore project. When you create a new phase code in Viewpoint® Vista™, those codes are synced with your Viewpoint® Vista™ Standard Cost Code List in Procore's Company level Admin tool. After the codes are synced, you can then use the steps below to copy the Viewpoint® Vista™ Standard Cost Code List to the Project Cost Codes list.
