Integrate a Microsoft Project Schedule using Procore Drive
The following article outlines the preferred method for uploading the project's Microsoft Project Schedule to Procore's Schedule tool. If you do not have a Windows computer, see Upload a Microsoft Project Schedule to Procore's Web Application.
Objective
To integrate a Microsoft Project schedule with a project managed in Procore.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions:
- 'Admin' level permission on the project's Schedule tool.
- Supported Microsoft Project Versions:
- Additional Information:
- When you integrate an Microsoft Project schedule with its associated project in Procore, anyone with ‘Read-only’ access and above (on the project’s Schedule tool) will have read-only access your Microsoft Project schedule directly in Procore.
- Your schedule cannot be changed from Procore. (i.e. No users logged in to Procore will be able to add/delete/change any part of your schedule from Procore.) Any changes to your project schedule must be performed from Microsoft's Project Management software and reuploaded to Procore.
- You can only link a single schedule to a Procore project. When a new version of the schedule becomes available, you must remember to update the schedule in Procore.
