Add Custom Segments to the Project Budget Code Structure
Background
When your company's Procore Administrator adds new custom segments to your Company level WBS, it is automatically added to your existing project's 'Available Segments' list. These new Company level segments are grayed out and unavailable, to show have not been added to the project's budget code structure. If you want to add that new Company level custom segment to your project, it can be added both before or after you've created budget codes on the project.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions:
- 'Admin' level permissions on the Project level Admin tool.
- Additional Information:
- When a new segment is added to the Company level WBS, Procore adds it to the 'Available Segments' list.
- To create a project budget code using that segment, you must add it to your project's budget code structure.
- You can add a Company level segment to your project's budget code at any time, before or after you've created budget codes on the project.
- To learn how the company and project level budget code structures interact, see What happens to projects when I change the segment order of my company's budget code structure in WBS?
- Limitations:
- For customers using the Company level ERP Integrations tool
The default segments in WBS are compatible with Procore's ERP Integrations tool. However, some integrations do NOT yet support custom segments. To learn more, see Things to Know about your ERP Integration.
- For customers who have independently developed or purchased a third-party solution to integrate with Procore
To take advantage of the custom segment capabilities associated with WBS, any existing API integrations that you have independently developed or purchased to interact with Procore must be updated to support Procore's new WBS API.
