Import Company Owned Equipment

Objective

To import company-owned equipment into your Company Equipment tool.

Background

In Procore, the Company Equipment registry contains the list of your company-owned equipment that is available for your site team to add and induct. Adding Company level equipment helps streamline the induction process and pulls maintenance information into the project. Your team can then quickly verify the information and complete the relevant checklist for your equipment as it arrives on site. 

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions: 
    • 'Admin' level permissions on the company’s Equipment tool.
  • Additional Information:
    • Imported equipment categories, types, makes and models cannot be deleted when associated to equipment.
    • You can edit a category, type, make and model at any time after import.
    • Only files in the XLSX format that have been properly filled out are accepted.

Steps

  1. Navigate to the company's Equipment tool.
  2. Click Import.
  3. In the 'Download & Import Excel Document' window, click Download Template.
  4. Open, fill out and save the template file. See Prepare Company Owned Equipment for Import for more information.
  5. In the 'Download & Import Excel Document' window, click Choose File.
  6. In the window that appears, select your file. Then click Open.
    Note: If you receive the error message shown below, the information entered in the template may be mis-aligned. Download the corrected file and ensure the values in each row match up to the column headers.
    • The headers in the error message below mean the following:
      • Received: Indicates the text in the column headers of your current file. 
      • Correction Applied: Indicates the column headers for the import file if you select "Download Corrected File" and what field the information will respect.
      • First Row Value: Indicates the first row value in your import file so that you can verify that the column headers match the values on your excel file. It's recommended that you verify the values on your "corrected file" before import.
