Payments - User Permissions
Payments
With Payments, General Contractors (payors) that are using Procore Pay to manage invoice payments, can pay subcontractors (payees) in Procore. Permissions differ based on task, and whether you are a payor or a payee.
Payor
As a payor, permissions to the Payment tool and its settings are managed in the company's Permissions tool. Additionally, there are two (2) supplemental role-based permissions that allow you to take actions within the payments tool. These role-based permissions are either set through a form request, or directly in the Payments tool:
- Payments Admin, which, due to the sensitive nature of payments, is provisioned by Procore after submitting a request.
- Payments Disburser, which is set in the Payments tool by a Payments Admin. See Add Payments Disbursers as a Payor.
Payee
As a payee, permissions differ based on whether your company has a free or paid Procore account. See How can I tell if I have a free or paid Procore account?
- For Paid Procore Accounts, users who have 'Admin' level permissions on the company's Directory have access to the Payments tool.
- For Free Procore Accounts, users who have 'System Administrator' permissions for your company's free Procore account have access to the Payments tool.
For both payors and payees, some actions, not specifically related to payments, are accessible through permissions in other tools.
