Objective

To delete a tiered location from a project's Admin tool. 

Background

Locations give you the ability to link different Procore items (RFIs, Submittals, and more) to specific locations on a job site. This helps project team members to identify the exact location on a job site where a defect was observed, where materials are to be installed, or where a project change order occurred.

Things to Consider 

  • Required User Permissions:
    • 'Admin' level permission on the project's Admin tool.
      OR
    • 'Read Only' or 'Standard' level permissions on the project's Admin tool with the 'Manage Locations' granular permission enabled on your permission template.
  • Additional Information:
    • When you delete a location, the selected location and any of its sub-locations are permanently removed. 

Steps

Take the following steps based on how your locations hierarchy was created and which tool you are using:

Delete Manually Created or Imported Locations

  1. Navigate to the Project level Admin tool.
  2. In the 'Project Settings' menu, click Locations.
  3. Locate the desired tier.
  4. Click the vertical ellipsis (⋮) and choose Delete.
    As shown in the example below, the system removes the selected location (e.g., Level Four) and all of its sub-locations (e.g., East and West).

  5. At the 'Delete Warning' message, click Confirm. 
    The system removes the location and any sub-locations. It also disassociates any items in Procore that have been assigned to that location and its sub-locations.
