Apply Configurable Custom Fields to Projects
Objective
To apply configurable custom fields that have been created in the Company level Admin tool to one or more projects in Procore.
Background
A configurable fieldset is a group of fields in certain Procore tools that can be set to optional, required or hidden, depending on the needs of your company. This allows for better control over data entry when users create and edit items in Procore projects. See What are configurable fieldsets and which Procore tools support them?
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions:
- 'Admin' on the Company level Admin tool.
- Additional Information:
- By default, configured custom fields are only applied to new projects. However, you can select which projects to apply them to.
- Configured custom fields applied to projects will be reflected on both Procore’s web and mobile applications.
- If you want to configure custom fields for specific tools, see What are configurable custom fields and which Procore tools support them?
