Create a Change Event from a Daywork Sheet

Objective

To create a change event from a Daywork Sheet. 

Background

If one or more Daywork Sheet(s) results in a change to a contract's scope of work, you can use the Bulk Actions menu in the Daywork Sheets tool to create a new change event. To perform this action, you will need to have the appropriate permissions on the project's Change Events tool and the Daywork Sheets tool. When you use this option, Procore creates a new change event and then automatically lists the Daywork Sheets that you selected in the 'Description' field in the new change event. In addition, any attachments are also linked in the Description and the line item entries on each sheet are added to the change event. 

Things to Consider

• Required User Permissions:
  • To create a change event in the Daywork Sheets tool:
    • Standard' or 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Daywork Sheets tool
      AND
