Budget Setup

The Budget tool shows details about all estimated costs related to a project. The first step is to create your budget directly in Procore (or you can alternatively import an existing budget). Owners commonly use the budget as an internal tool for managing project contracts and costs associated with various contractors. It is also used to track the estimated cost of completion—to show where you are under/over your budget across projects. However, for privacy reasons, budget information is typically hidden from external collaborators.

The Company level Admin tool lets you set up a budget view (see What are Procore's standard budget views?), which is a custom way of configuring and viewing your budget. Your custom budget view can include a wide variety of data columns, such as Original Budget Amount, Budget Changes, Revised Budget, Pending Budget Changes, and more.
