What is the Resource Planning/LaborChart App?

 App Sunset

The 'LaborChart' iOS app and 'Resource Planning’ Android app are being retired and will soon no longer be available for download.

Resource Planning functionality is now available in beta on the Procore mobile app.

Background

Resource Planning is Procore's construction resource management tool. It offers centralized scheduling and communication as well as real-time insight into availability and skill set. Before becoming Procore's Resource Planning tool, it was a standalone application called LaborChart.

While the web experience is embedded in Procore, the mobile experience has been available through a legacy LaborChart app. For iOS the app was called 'LaborChart'. For Android, the app was called 'Resource Planning'.

The apps are being retired and will soon no longer be available for download.

Resource Planning functionality is now available in beta on the Procore mobile app.

Answer

What will happen to the LaborChart mobile app?

If you currently have the app installed, it will continue to function, but it will no longer be supported or updated.

How do I access LaborChart (Resource Planning) on my mobile device after the LaborChart app is retired?

You can access Resource Planning information within the standard Procore mobile app. The new functionality will include both company-level and project-level access to assignment information, with additional capabilities coming shortly after, such as the ability to create requests and assignments.

Will my LaborChart data be affected by this change?

No. There will be no impact to your data.

Will I have the same features in the Procore app as I did in the LaborChart app?

Yes, eventually. Our goal is to provide the same or similar features in the Procore app over time. Initially, you will have access to a complete list of assignments for all projects at both the company and project levels.

What if I have issues accessing Resource Management in the Procore mobile app?

Please use the Support & Feedback option in the mobile app to report an app issue. You can also go online, log into Procore, and use the Support option. See Support & Feedback iOS and Support & Feedback Android.
