Recent Changes

Modernized layout for specifications tool on web (12/16/2024)

The main page of Procore’s Specifications tool now matches other Procore tools with a modernized and intuitive interface. All the same tasks and features are available, and some appear only when you need them such as the edit, download, and delete menu appearing once you select list item(s).

Look for all your same buttons and features integrated into the main page instead of listed in a right-side panel. For example, instead of clicking the orange Manually Create Specs Sections button, click the white icon-plus-2.png ​​​​​​Create Specification button. See Manage Specification Log to see the new interface and get navigational support.
