Delete Unused Segment Items from a Project

Objective

To delete unused segment items from a Procore project. 

Background

At the Project level, segments and segment items can be deleted in accordance with the policies set by your company's Procore Administrator when the segment was created (see Add Custom Segments). Much like segment items in your Company level WBS, Project level segment items can be deleted only when they have not been used to create a budget code on your project. 

 Note
The steps below are only available when your Procore Administrator places a checkmark in the 'Add/Edit/Delete Project Level Segment Items' box. To learn more, see Add Custom Segments and Edit Custom Segment Settings

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:

    • 'Admin' level permissions on the Project level Admin tool. 
      OR
    • 'Read-Only' or 'Standard' level permissions on the Project level Admin tool with the 'Manage Segment Items' granular permission enabled on your permissions template. 
      Note: Your Procore Administrator must configure additional settings for you to edit or delete a custom segment. To learn more, see the "Notes" in Admin: Manage WBS Codes
  • Additional Information:
    • After a segment item is used to create a budget code on a project, it cannot be deleted. However, it can be deactivated to prevent future use. See Deactivate Segment Items.
  • Limitations:
    • For customers using Procore's Field Productivity tools
      The default segments in WBS are compatible with icon-external-link.png Field Productivity. Custom segments are NOT yet supported. To learn more, see Why can't I create WBS custom segments?
    • 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.
