Delete Pending Specification Uploads
Objective
To prevent an uploaded specification from being added to a project's specification set by deleting or removing it during the specification review process.
Background
When you upload a project's PDF specifications, Procore automatically divides it into detailed specification sheets for easy reference. You can choose to publish all sheets simultaneously, review and publish selected sheets and cancel the rest, or, if the specification set is long, you can return to the review process later.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions
- If you delete a pending specification, it will not be published to the current specification set.
- When you delete a specification during the review process, you will delete any remaining, unpublished specifications. Any specifications that were previously published have already been added to the project's specification set and will not be deleted.
Steps
- Navigate to the project's Specifications tool.
- If the 'Items to review' window isn't already open at the bottom of your screen, click the black bar to open it.
- Hover over the item you want to delete and click the x that appears next to it.
Notes:- Only the pending specification sheets are deleted. Specification sheets published prior to this delete action are already published to the designated specification set and will not be removed.
- If you don't see an x when hovering but you see a trashcan icon, the item is already published. You can delete it if you meet the prerequisites for deleting specification sections.
- Click OK in the confirmation window to confirm that you want to delete all remaining unpublished specifications.
