Add Project Insurance to a Company Record in the Project Directory

Objective

To add project insurance information to a company record in the Project level Directory tool. 

Background

An insurance manager can use the steps below to add insurance information (for example, insurance policies and certificates) for the contractors, subcontractors, and other vendors who have company records in the Project level Directory tool.

Things to Consider

• Required User Permissions
• If you have enabled the ERP Integrations tool for Sage 300 CRE, the system locks the following insurance fields when a Sage 300 CRE® vendor with insurance information is synced with Procore: Insurance Type (e.g., General, Automotive, Umbrella, and Worker's), Effective Date, Expiration Date, Limit Amount, Name, and Policy Number.
• Insurance updates are recorded in the company record's 'Change History' tab.
• If you would like to add the Insurance Provider as a Vendor/Company in the Project or Company Directory, add the provider first. See Add a Company to the Project Directory or  Add a Company to the Company Directory. 
• Changing a 'Status' at a later time will NOT trigger any automated email notifications, because Procore's automated email notifications to the Insurance Manager are associated with the Expiration Date.
• For companies using the  ERP Integrations tool:
  • If you have enabled the ERP Integrations tool for Sage 300 CRE, the system locks the following insurance fields when a Sage 300 CRE vendor with insurance information is synced with Procore: Insurance Type (e.g., General, Automotive, Umbrella, and Worker's), Effective Date, Expiration Date, Limit Amount, Name, and Policy Number.
