Edit Custom Segment Settings

Background

After you add a custom segment, you can edit its 'Segment Name' and its 'Project Level Actions' settings at any time. However, you are NOT permitted to modify its 'Segment Structure' setting. For example, you can change a segment named 'Phase' to 'Stage' and you can turn ON/OFF the Project level settings, but you cannot change a tiered segment to a flat segment (or vice versa).

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:

    • 'Admin' level permissions on the Company level Admin tool.

  • Additional Information:

    • You cannot edit the 'Segment Structure' after a segment is created. For example, you cannot change a tiered segment to a flat segment or vice versa.

    • You can edit these settings for a custom segment: 'Segment Name' and the checkboxes under 'Project Level Actions'.

    • You cannot edit the settings for a default segment at any time.

  • Limitations:

    • For customers using the Company level ERP Integrations tool
      The default segments in WBS are compatible with Procore's ERP Integrations tool. However, some integrations do NOT yet support custom segments.

    • For customers who have independently developed or purchased a third-party solution to integrate with Procore
      To take advantage of the custom segment capabilities associated with WBS, any existing API integrations that you have independently developed or purchased to interact with Procore must be updated to support Procore's new WBS API.

    • Custom Segments are NOT supported with the ERP Integrations tool.
