Create Projects in Resource Planning

Background

Resource Planning gives you the ability to create projects so that you can manage your resources for those initiatives.

Note icon Note

Projects can be created in either Procore's Portfolio tool or Resource Planning, but your company must choose one as your system of record. Your Procore point of contact guides your company through this decision based on your setup.

This article is for customers who have Resource Planning as their system of record for project creation and management.

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions

  • If data syncs are enabled:

    • If you have one project template in the Portfolio tool, the template is applied when the project is synced to the Portfolio tool. If you have more than one project template, no template is applied.

    • Only some information synced between Resource Planning and the Portfolio tool. See What project information is synced between Resource Planning and Procore Projects?

    • Projects created in the Portfolio tool will NOT sync to Resource Planning as your company has chosen to manage projects in Resource Planning as the system of record.
