Tips
Why is there no 'Division' concept in Procore? In Procore's WBS, the 'Cost Code' segment is a tiered segment and there is no concept of 'Division'. Instead, a 'Division' is treated as a tier in a tiered segment. Tiers within a segment are always delimited by a dash (-). Procore's default cost code list has two (2) tiers. However, your environment might have one, two, or multiple tiers. To learn more, see Work Breakdown Structure FAQ.
