Send a Completed Submittals Import Template to Procore
NOTE TO SUPERUSERS:
Effective June 20, 2018, new Procore users are being encouraged to create submittals using the steps in Submittal Builder: Generate Submittals from Specifications. For customers who require the Microsoft Excel import process, they must now use the request process in this article. They can then be provided with the instructions in Update the Submittals Import Template.
- Upon receipt of an import request, the Procore Import Team must:
- Verify that the user account has the appropriate permission to request a data import.
- Verify that the user has properly completed all of the import template requirements.
IMPORTANT! Procore Employees are restricted from modifying the data that clients submit in all Procore Import Templates. If errors are found, return the template to the end user for correction. - Convert the XLSX file to the required CSV (UTF-8) format before performing the import.
Objective
To submit a request to Procore to bulk-import a list of submittals to the Project level Submittals tool.
Background
If you need to add a large number of submittals to a project, it is recommended that you use the Submittal Builder in the Specifications tool. See Submittal Builder: Generate Submittals from Specifications. If you would prefer to import your submittals from a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet, you can import your submittals through the Procore Imports App or submit a request to our Procore Import Team at imports@procore.com.
If you want to expedite the import process, perform your own submittals import using the Procore Imports App.
