Configure Dynamic Grouping on an Estimate

The Dynamic Grouping feature in Procore's Estimating tool provides a powerful way to quickly reorganize and analyze your estimate data. This functionality helps estimators fine-tune and review estimates by providing a quick overview based on user defined criteria. Within Dynamic Grouping, you can also enable the Split Assemblies feature, which allows you to view the individual components of multiple assemblies within your estimate.
