Tool Settings

  • Default Punch Item Manager: Select team member as PL Manager, as applicable.
  • Default Final Approver: Select team member as Final Approver, as applicable.
  • Default Distribution List: Select Brinkmann team members for Distribution List, as applicable.
  • Standard Permission Users who can act as a Punch Item Manager: Blank (Standard user is someone like an Architect. A Brinkmann team member should be the Punch Manager.)
  • Punch List Items Private by Default: Checked (To ensure that Owners do not have access to view Brinkmann created Punch Items.)
  • Punch Item Response will be Due: The default for this setting is 3 days.
  • Enable Overdue emails for Assignees: Checked
  • Configure Emails by Role: A general guideline is set on each project. Adjust as applicable.
  • Punch Item Types: There are a few preloaded, you may add additional types as applicable. This will help you filter easily for back punch or distributions when you have items for different types.

Brinkmann Best Practices

  • Create a separate Drawing Area for Punch List. If you create as a Drawing Set, Procore will sync them with other plans and all punch items will appear on the set.
  • Punch List works best on your mobile device as you walk the site.
  • It is RECOMMENDED to create items from a Drawing. Punch tool is best used to review and send items to subcontractors.
  • Pins are color coded:
    • Blue Pins: New Items
    • Grey Pins: Closed or Draft Status
  • Locations shall be used to organize punch list items for more detail (Locations are set up in the Admin Tool of your project. - See Locations heading on main page)

Locations

  • When creating the locations, make sure to NOT just list all rooms or areas individually under this entire building. If the building is phased, create categories for each phase and have subcategories for areas in each phase.
  • Don't forget your site and subcategories for elevations. Here's an example of how it should be broken up:
    • Location: Building
      • Sub-Location: Roof
        • Sub-Location: Steep Roof
        • Sub-Location: Flat Roof A
        • Sub-Location: Flat Roof B
      • Sub-Location: East Elevation
      • Sub-Location: West Elevation
    • Location: Site
      • Sub-Location: Courtyard A
      • Sub-Location: Courtyard B
    • Location: Phase B East Wing
      • Sub-Location: Conference Rooms
        • Sub-Location: 1186 Conference Room
        • Sub-Location: 1187 Conference Room
      • Sub-Location: Perimeter Office
        • Sub-Location: 1190 GM Office
        • Sub-Location: 1191 Office
        • Sub-Location: 1192 Admin
      • Sub-Location: Corridors
        • Sub-Location: 1000 Corridor
        • Sub-Location: 1001 Corridor
  • When filtering locations, Procore allows you to select a location or sub-location and then include all sub-locations. Meaning if you have a general note to align all hanging light fixtures in corridors, you can select the sub-location corridors and then select the button to include sub-locations so you do not have to create a separate item for each corridor. This comes in handy for any general items you may have.

Users with 'Standard' level permissions can perform this action if they are listed as the item's Punch Item Manager, Assignee, or Final Approver, or if they have been granted the granular permission "Respond to Punch Items Assigned to Users within the Same Company."

'Standard' level users can only list 'Admin' level users as the 'Assignee' on a punch list item. However, 'Standard' level users who have been chosen to act as a Punch Item Manager from the Punch List Settings, can list other 'Standard' level users as the 'Assignee' on a punch list item.

'Standard' level users can only close punch list items they have created (when the item's status is 'Draft' or 'In Dispute'), or when they have been designated as the item's 'Final Approver' (when the item's status is 'Ready to Close') or designated as the item's 'Punch Item Manager'.

Users with 'Read Only' permissions can perform this action if they have been granted the granular permission “Respond to Punch Items Assigned to Users within the Same Company.”

5 Users with 'Standard' and 'Read Only' permissions can only view non-private punch list items after they have been sent to the Assignee.

Users with 'Standard' permissions can only perform this action for items they created.

This task also requires 'Admin' permissions on the project's Admin tool and 'Standard' permissions on the project's Directory tool.
