Create a Lookahead Program

Objective

To create a lookahead in the project level Program tool.

Required User Permissions:
- To create a lookahead program:
  - 'Admin' permissions on the project's Program tool.
    OR
  - 'Read Only' or 'Standard' level permissions on the Program tool with the 'Create Lookahead Program' granular permission enabled on your permissions template.
Additional Information:
- When you create a Lookahead in Procore, it will not show up on an integrated program in Procore (e.g. Microsoft Project, Primavera).
- Lookaheads populate directly from the master program. To see changes made to the master program reflected on the lookahead you will need to re-upload the master program and create a new Lookahead program.
- You can create multiple lookahead programs within the same project. See Create Next Lookahead.
Prerequisites:
- In order to create a Lookahead, you must have Admin permissions and already have a master program uploaded in Procore. See Upload a Project Program File.

Navigate to the project's Program tool.
Click the Lookaheads tab.
Click the +Create Lookahead button.
Fill out the following fields:
- Start date: The date you want your lookahead to start.
- Duration: Time frame you want the lookahead to show. You can select a minimum of one week and a maximum of six weeks.
  
  Note: If a task on your lookahead lasts longer than the duration of the lookahead, it will still be reflected.
