PROCORE SUPPORT: INTERNAL NOTES
Some Procore customers choose to grant downstream collaborators a higher level of permissions than documented in this matrix. Although this practice is supported, it is NOT recommended for the reasons stated below:
- 'Standard' level permissions on the project's Commitments tool. Although this permission gives designated progress claim contacts the ability to create progress claims with the Commitments tool, it also gives users permission to see ALL purchase orders and subcontracts that are NOT marked 'Private.' Because progress claim contacts are not employees of the company account managing the Procore project, it is recommended that users do NOT provide this permission to progress claim contacts.
- 'Admin' level permission on the project's Commitments tool. Although this permission gives users the ability to create progress claims, it gives the user full edit access to all of the commitments in the project's Commitments tool. It also gives the user permission to create progress claims before and after the 'Due Date.' Because progress claim contacts are not employees of the company account managing the Procore project, it is recommended that users do NOT provide this permission to progress claim contacts.

Commitment Progress Claim retention controls Now In General Availability (10/02/2025)
Procore is pleased to announce the general availability of commitment progress claim retention controls for Progress Claim Management. The new 'Subcontractor Default Progress Claim Type' drop-down in Configure Settings: Invoicing lets 'Admin' users determine billable columns—Work and Materials, and/or Retention. 'Admin' users can select billing options when sending invites to bill and set a default progress claim type for progress claims created by subcontractors without an invite. Learn more about this feature by visiting Send an Invite to Bill to a Progress Claim Contact and Accept or Decline an Invite to Bill as a Progress Claim Contact.
Automated Movement of Stored Materials on Progress Claims Now In General Availability (10/02/2025)
Procore is pleased to announce the general availability of automated movement of stored materials on progress claims. This feature automatically transfers stored materials balances to the "Work Completed from Previous Application" column on subsequent progress claims, streamlining the invoicing process for both owners and subcontractors. This functionality eliminates manual adjustments and reduces the risk of errors, saving you time and improving accuracy. Learn more about this feature by visiting About Stored Materials.
Conditional Routing for Commitment Progress Claims Based on Stored Materials Now Generally Available (28/01/2025)
Procore has introduced a new feature in the Workflows tool that allows Project Managers and Project Accountants to route commitment progress claims through workflow steps based on Materials Stored Amount. The Materials Stored Amount option enables users to set a dollar threshold for workflow routing, allowing conditional routing of workflows based on a specified amount of Stored Materials. To learn more, see Create a Workflow Template and What are the different types of steps in a workflow?
Enhanced Commitment Invoicing Workflow Conditionals (06/01/2025)
Procore updated the Workflows tool with new conditional routing options for subcontractor progress claims to improve flexibility. Progress Claims can now be routed through workflow steps based on factors such as Gross Amount, Retention Released Amount, Total Retention Released, and Total Completed and Stored to Date. See Create a Workflow Template and What are the different types of steps in a workflow?
Beta Commitment Progress Claim retention controls for progress claim management (10/12/2024)
A new ‘Subcontractor Default Progress Claim Type’ drop-down in Configure Settings: Invoicing allows ‘Admin’ users to determine what columns are billable on a progress claim–Work and Materials, and/or Retention. When sending invites to bill, ‘Admin’ users can now select what can be billed for on the progress claim created from that invite. Users can also set a default progress claim type for progress claims created by subcontractors who aren’t sent an invite. See Send an Invite to Bill to a Progress Claim Contact and Accept or Decline an Invite to Bill as a Progress Claim Contact.
Bill for Stored Materials on Unit Quantity Contracts (11/11/2024)
Procore is excited to announce the general availability of the Stored Materials on Unit Quantity Contract Progress Claims, allowing Procore Progress Claim Management users to bill for and track stored materials directly in Procore’s Unit/Quantity-based subcontractor and owner progress claims. These capabilities enhance efficiency and help teams ensure accurate billing. To learn more, see About Stored Materials on Progress Claims.
Beta Automated Movement of Stored Materials on Progress Claims (12/08/2024)
Procore implemented a configuration that, when enabled, automatically moves Stored Materials balances to the Work Completed from Previous Application column on the next progress claim created. This configuration applied to both Owner and Subcontractor Progress Claims. To access the new stored materials functionality, teams must join the Closed Beta program for Automated Movement of Stored Materials. For information, contact your Procore point of contact. To learn more, see About Stored Materials.
Beta Bill for stored materials on unit/quantity-based Contracts (15/08/2024)
Teams participating in the Owner Progress Claim and Subcontractor Progress Claim Beta programs can now bill for stored materials using the ‘Unit/Quantity-Based’ accounting method. Billing for stored materials on progress claims helps contractors recover costs and ensures accurate documentation by differentiating between installed and stored materials. To access the new stored materials functionality, teams must join the Closed Beta program for Unit/Quantity-Based contracts for each progress claim type. For information, contact your Procore point of contact. To learn how to use the functionality, see About Stored Materials on Progress Claims.
Include Procore Pay Lien Waivers in Subcontractor Progress Claim Backups (12/08/2024)
Procore has updated the Project level Invoicing tool for payors using Procore Pay. Now, when compiling a subcontractor progress claim backup, the system includes any first- and sub-tier lien waivers in the downloadable PDF backup file. This enhancement streamlines documentation, providing comprehensive proof of payment and supporting documents need to efficiently resolve non-payment disputes. See Compile Subcontractor Progress Claim Backups with the Invoicing Tool.
Improved File Names for Subcontractor Progress Claim Backup PDFs (12/08/2024)
Whenever a user compiles a subcontractor progress claim backup, Procore sends the user an email when the file is ready to download. Before this update, Procore always named the backup file "subcontractor_invoice_backup.pdf". To improve clarity and ease of identification, Procore now automatically appends the project name, project number, date and time of the compile in the file name. For an example, see Compile Subcontractor Progress Claim Backups with the Invoicing Tool.
Improved Sorting in Subcontractor Progress Claim Backup PDFs (06/08/2024)
When compiling subcontractor progress claim backups, Procore now sorts progress claims by 'Contract #' in ascending order. It also applies a secondary sort by 'Invoice Position' number.
