- Additional Information:
- When you integrate an Microsoft Project, Asta or Phoenix program with its associated project in Procore, anyone with ‘Read-only’ access and above (on the project’s Program tool) will have read-only access your Microsoft Project, Asta or Phoenix program directly in Procore.
- Your program cannot be changed from Procore. (i.e. No users logged in to Procore will be able to add/delete/change any part of your program from Procore). Any changes to your project program must be performed using Microsoft Project, Asta or Phoenix software and be reuploaded to Procore.
- You can only link a single program to a Procore project. When a new version of the program becomes available, you must remember to update the program in Procore.
