Integration by Procore: Delete a Commitment Synced with Viewpoint® Spectrum®
Objective
To delete a commitment after it has been synced with Viewpoint® Spectrum® using the Integration by Procore.
Background
After you sync a commitment between Procore and Viewpoint® Vista™ using the Integration by Procore, you will typically use the change order process when you need to modify a commitment (see Create a Commitment Change Order or Create a Commitment Change Order from a Change Event). However, on occasion, you might need to delete a synced commitment on a project. Since Procore does not permit users to delete synced commitments, the only way to delete the commitment is to first unlink it. See Unlink Commitments Synced with Viewpoint® Spectrum®. After the unlink, use the steps below to delete it.
