Add, Edit or Delete Locations
Objective
To add, edit or delete locations for your project's locations list.
Background
Once you've generated your tiered list of project locations from your drawings, you can view them in the Locations screen. The Locations screen allows you to add new locations, edit locations themselves, modify boundaries for locations overlaid on drawings and also view a heat map to see how many items in Procore are associated to each location. The Locations screen is accessible from both the Project level Admin tool and the Drawings tool.
