Set and Apply Favourites for the Project Tools Menu

Objective

To set up a list of your favourite Procore project tools and apply to all of your projects in your company's Procore account. 

Background

If you want to create a list of your favourite Procore project tools and then apply those favourites across all your Procore projects in your company's account, use the controls in your Favourites tab. The Favourites tab is located in the My Profile Settings page, which can be accessed by clicking your initials in the top-right corner of Procore's Company level navigation bar (Note: The Favourites tab is not available in the My Profile Settings page when it is accessed from Procore's Project level navigation bar).

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permission:
    • 'Read-Only' level permission or higher to the company's Portfolio tool.
      AND
    • 'Read-Only' level permission or higher to the Procore tools that you want to add to your favourites list. 
  • Additional Information:
    • The Favourites you define are specific to your Procore user account (i.e., a Procore Administrator cannot define a Favourites list for other Procore users).
    • You must have a default permission template assigned to your user account. If you don't have a default permission template, you will be prompted to reach out to a Procore Administrator at the company you are working with.
    • When you create or update your Favourites using the Steps below, your new settings and/or any updates will be applied to all of your projects in your company's account. If you have previously set up a project-specific favourites list, those favourites will be overwritten. To restore those settings, you can navigate to the project and follow the steps in Add Favourites to the Project Tools Menu.
