Update the Schedule of Values on a Head Contract

Objective

To describe the different ways you can update the line items on a contract's Schedule of Values (SOV).

Background

After creating a contract, you can choose from three (3) methods to update line items to your contract's SOV: 

Things to Consider

Prerequisites

Steps

There are several ways to add and update line items on a contract's SOV:

Add Line Items to the SOV

  1. Navigate to the project's Head Contracts tool.
  2. Locate the contract to update and click its Number link. 
  3. Click the Schedule of Values tab.
  4. Click Add Line.
  5. Complete the data entry as follows:
    1. Budget Code
      Select a budget code or click Create Budget Code. See What is a budget code in Procore's WBS? 
    2. Description
      Enter a description for the line item. For example, type: Monthly Service Fee
    3. Qty
      Enter the number of units.
    4. UOM
      Select a Unit of Measure (UOM) from the drop-down list. To learn about the default selections in this list, see Which units of measure are included in Procore's master list? and Add a Unit of Measure to the Unit of Measure Master List.
    5. Unit Cost
      Enter the cost per unit in this box. You'll notice that the value in this column contains four (4) decimal points (for example, $0.0000) to allow you to enter the specific value required to calculate accurate pricing. 
      Example
      If you are buying 50,000 units for $1,006,625.00, you would enter a unit price of $20.1325. 
    6. Amount
      The system automatically calculates the subtotal for you, based on the Qty, UOM, and Unit Cost entries. 
  6. Repeat the above steps for all line items.
     Tip
    Want to arrange the line items on your schedule of values into groups? Click the Add Group menu and select the desired grouping options. The default options include Cost Code, Cost Type, Sub Job (if enabled), as well as any custom segments that have been added for your company or project. See What are Segments and Segment Items. 
  7. Choose one of these options:
    • Click Save
      OR
    • Click Save & Email.  

Create the SOV from the Project's Budget

 Note

If you will be creating the contract SOV from the project's budget as described below, ensure your contract's SOV is blank. You can only use these steps below when the SOV has zero (0) line items. You must also:

  1. Navigate to the project's Head Contracts tool. 
  2. Locate the contract to update. Then click its Number link.
  3. Click the Schedule of Values tab.
  4. ​Below the 'Schedule of Values' table, click Import. Then choose SOV from Budget from the drop-down menu.

  5. In the 'Import Schedule of Values from Budget?' window, click Import. 
    • If the SOV is blank, the following message appears. 

      import-sov-blank.png
    • If the SOV has existing line items, all existing line items will be replaced with the line items in the budget.

      Procore replaces any existing line items on the Schedule of Values with the line items current in the project's budget. This can take several minutes. Once the import is complete, a GREEN banner appears to indicate the action was successful and the line items appear in the 'Schedule of Values' table.
