This table shows the differences in tool names (bold) and terms across the point-of-view dictionaries for Project Financials. These dictionaries are available in US English only. The default dictionary is designed for head contractors, which means that you will need to work with your Procore Administrator at your company and your Procore point of contact to access the other dictionary options.

Objective
To create a downstream progress claim as an progress claim administrator on behalf of an progress claim contact.
Background
If your company or project doesn't want to grant external collaborators access permission to your Procore project so they can submit their own progress claims, your team can collect the digital or paper progress claims from your progress claim contacts outside of Procore. Once collected, progress claim administrators can create them in Procore on each progress claim contact's behalf.
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions
- Additional Information:
- A progress claim administrator can:
- Create progress claims for all of a project's commitments.
- Edit amounts on a Schedule of Values when the progress claim is in the Draft or Revise & Resubmit status. When multiple progress claims exist for one commitment during one billing period, you can only amounts on the latest progress claim.
- For users legally required to provide claimants with a payment program, see Export a Payment Program.
- Revise the 'Payment Due Date' on the progress claim for Early Pay Programs.
Prerequisites
To perform the Steps in this tutorial, the progress claim's commitment must have:
In addition, a progress claim administrator must create a billing period for the progress claim. See Manage Billing Periods.
