(Beta) Configure a Custom Workflow Template for Single Tier Change Orders on a Project

To configure a custom workflow for single-tier change orders on a Procore project.

After an authorized user publishes a custom workflow for use with a subcontract or purchase order, the next step is to assign that workflow to a project. Once the workflow is assigned to a project, you can update its configuration settings for your specific project. This includes assigning a person to act as the 'Workflow Manager' for your project and assigning the appropriate distribution group(s) and assignees to your workflow for Procore's automated notifications.

• Required User Permissions:

  • 'Admin' level permissions on the company's Directory tool.
    OR

  • Users with the 'Configure Workflow Templates' commitment workflows granular permission on their permissions template.
