Below are the notable changes to the project's Head Contracts tool (also known as the Funding tool or the Client Contracts tool in some accounts).

Recent Changes

Owner Invoicing Performance Improvements (16/05/2025)

Procore has significantly enhanced the performance of creating and loading Owner Progress Claims, resulting in much faster speeds. The Owner Progress Claims feature now captures changes in the Change History more efficiently by summarizing line items, which is particularly beneficial for large progress claims.

Auto-Pin Column to Improve Horizontal Scrolling in Head Contracts Tool (12/5/2025)

Procore's Head Contracts tool now automatically pins the Number column on the head contracts table, similar to freezing columns in a spreadsheet. This keeps essential data visible while you view other details.

Added a Tax Code Column to CSV Imports for Amount-Based Accounting (12/05/2025)

Procore has introduced a new 'Tax Code' column to the CSV import functionality for the Head Contracts tool, enhancing the accuracy and compliance of financial data management. This addition streamlines the import process, reducing manual data entry errors and improving the user experience for construction stakeholders. To learn more, see Import a Head Contract SOV from a CSV File.

Enhanced Custom Fields for Change Orders (12/05/2025)

Procore has updated the Commitments and Head Contracts tools to display Custom Fields on Potential Change Orders (PCOs). This enhancement allows users to better manage and customise their change order processes. To learn more, see What are custom fields and which Procore tools support them? and What field types are available for Custom Fields in Procore Tools?
