Delete or Inactivate a Project in Workforce Planning

Objective

To delete a project in Workforce Planning

Background

You can delete or inactivate projects in Workforce Planning if they are no longer needed. Projects that are deleted in Workforce Planning will be marked as inactive in Procore. In general, Procore recommends inactivating projects instead of deleting them, so that you can retain any data associated with the project.

 Note

Projects can be created in either Procore or Workforce Planning, but your company must choose one as your system of record. Your Procore point of contact guides your company through this decision based on your setup. 

This article is for customers who have Workforce Planning as their system of record for project creation and management.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions
  • Deactivating or deleting a project will end any current assignments and requests, and will delete any future assignments and requests.
  • Deleted or inactive projects are removed from the Assignments board.
  • Inactive projects remain in Workforce Planning for record keeping purposes.
  • Inactive projects cannot have new workforce assignments or workforce requests created or existing requests and assignments edited.
  • If data syncs are enabled:
