This feature is currently in beta for select Procore customers.
Background
You can use Procore to manage materials for your project. From the Materials tool, you can create shipments to track the materials you have ordered. You can create shipments for orders you placed outside of Procore, or from approved purchase and changed orders made in Procore's Commitments tool.
Things to Consider
You can create a receipt from an order or a shipment. If you create a receipt from an order, it will automatically create a shipment. If you have already created a shipment for that order, it will create a duplicate. You can delete the duplicate shipment.
The Ship Date and the Estimated Transit Time entered will calculate the Estimated Delivery Date for the shipment's line items.
If creating a shipment for uploaded materials, you must create your receipt from the 'Create' button.
