Enable Sub Jobs on Projects for WBS

Objective

To enable the company level setting that allows your team to use the project level Sub Jobs feature with Work Breakdown Structure (WBS).

Background

In Procore, a sub job allows you to compartmentalize job costs within a project. Once they are added to Procore (or imported via an integrated ERP system) you can monitor your project budgets and costs against them to help you better determine if you are making money on your project. For example, if your project is a multi-story commercial building, you might create a separate sub job for the build of each floor. Or, if your project is a multi-unit development, you might create a separate sub job for each individual structure.

Things to Consider

Steps

  1. Navigate to the Company level Admin tool. 
  2. Under 'Company Settings', click Work Breakdown Structure.

  5. Click Save
    Procore adds a 'Sub Job' line item to the 'Segments' table. The 'Sub Job' line item is grayed out and unavailable, because sub-jobs are managed at the project level.
