Lock a Budget

Objective

To lock a project's budget.

Background

When setting up a construction project in Procore, it is important to lock the budget once the original budget is finalized. This ensures that project users are restricted from making changes to the project's original budget data and that your team has an accurate historical record of all the budget modifications and variations that affect the budget over the course of the project. 

Things to Consider

Prerequisites

Steps

  1. Navigate to the project's Budget tool.
  2. Review the original budget to ensure that no further changes are required.
  3. Click the Lock Budget button.

    If you realise that you need to make a change to the budget, users with 'Admin' level permission to the Budget tool can unlock a budget.
