Updated Cost Code and Cost Type Settings (14/11/2023)

New Search Functionality in Filters (09/11/2023)

ERP Cost Codes added to tender board tool (10/10/2023)
ERP cost codes are now available for use in the Tender Board and Porftolio Planning tools when adding estimates. This new feature applies to all ERP connectors. See Add an Estimate.
NEW POINT-OF-VIEW DICTIONARY FOR OWNERS (17/05/2023)
The Tender Board and Porftolio Planning tools have been revised to make the language more accessible for the owner audience. When applied to your company's Procore account, the owner point-of-view dictionary changes the labels and names of particular tools and objects in the user interface. For example, owners will now see Portfolio Planning as the tool name instead of Tender Board. See What tool names and terms are different in Procore for general contractors, owners, and specialty contractors?
set and apply project templates in the tender board tool (08/02/2023)
You can now set multiple projects as templates and apply them to other projects within the Tender Board and Portfolio Planning tools. See Apply a Template in the Tender Board Tool and Set a Tender Board Project as a Template.
change column from 'requested tender item' to 'cost code' IN THE TENDER BOARD TOOL (06/02/2023)
A ‘Requested Tender Item’ column has been added for estimates in the Tender Board and Portfolio Planning tools. See Add an Estimate. After a project has been added to the Portfolio tool in Procore, you can switch the column name from ‘Requested Tender Item’ to ‘Cost Code’ to select your own cost codes.
