Procore

Create a Custom Company Report

Objective

To add a custom report using Procore's Reports tool.

Background

The Reports tool gives users the ability to create, generate and export customised reports. When designing a report, its author can include data captured by specific Procore tools, specify the desired column layout and also define how to group and filter report data. After generating a report, it can also be exported from Procore into Microsoft Excel. 

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
    • 'Standard' level permissions or higher on the Company level Reports tool
      AND
      • To create a report using data from the Company level Directory tool: You also need 'Admin' level permissions on the Company level Directory tool. 
        Note: If you have 'Admin' level permissions on the Project level Directory tool for one or more projects, you can create custom company reports using project data from those projects. 
      • To create a report using data from a Financial Management tool: You also need 'Admin' level permissions on the applicable tool (and 'Admin' level permissions on the Company level Admin tool for reports using data from the project's Budget tool).

      • To create a report using data from another tool: You also need 'Read Only' level permissions or higher on the applicable tool.
