Edit a Commitment Synced with MYOB Advanced Construction
Objective
To edit a commitment in Procore after its been synced with an integrated ERP system.
Background
After the commitments on a project have been synced with a company's MYOB Advanced Construction system, Procore automatically restricts your ability to edit synced fields on a commitment. This is to ensure that the data remains in sync on both systems. The fields that cannot be edited after a sync include:
- Contract Company
- Status
- Schedule of Values (SOV) subtab (all fields)
On occasion, you may have a need to edit a synced commitment. The method that you use to edit a commitment will differ, depending upon whether or not you are making an official change to the terms of the commitment or if you are correcting a data entry mistake.
- If you are making an official change to the terms of the commitment, it is recommended that you use the change order process. See Create a CCO for a Synced Commitment.
- If you need to edit the commitment without a change order (e.g., correcting a data entry error), you will need to manually unlink the synced commitment (see Unlink Commitments Synced with MYOB Advanced Construction) before you can fix the issues in the commitment using the Steps below.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions:
- To edit a commitment, 'Admin' level permission on the project's Commitments tool.
OR - To edit a commitment as a user with 'Standard' or 'Read Only' level permission to the Commitments tool, the 'Update Purchase Order' and/or 'Update Subcontract' granular permission must be enabled on the permission template associated with your user account on the project. See Grant Granular Permissions in a Permission Template.
- To edit a commitment, 'Admin' level permission on the project's Commitments tool.
- Prerequisites:
- The project's commitments must be synced with the MYOB Advanced Construction system.
- The synced commitment must first be unlinked. See Unlink Commitments Synced with MYOB Advanced Construction.
