Create a Coordination Issue in the Model Viewer

Objective

To create a coordination issue from the side panel of the model viewer.

Background

When you notice a coordination issue while viewing a model in Procore, you can create an issue directly from the Issues side panel without needing to navigate to the Coordination Issues tool. Your current view of the model is automatically added as a snapshot, and the new coordination issue can be viewed and opened from the side panel or Coordination Issues tool.  

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
    • 'Read Only' or higher level permissions on the project's Models tool.
      AND
    • ‘Standard’ or 'Admin' level permissions on the project's Coordination Issues tool.

Steps

  1. Navigate to the project's Models tool on app.procore.com.
  2. Click the model you want to open.
  3. Navigate to the area that you want to create a coordination issue from. See View a Model for tips navigating the model.
    Note: The snapshot of your current view will be added to the issue, but you can click Update Snapshot later if you need to change it. 
  4. Click the Issues icon-issues.png icon to open the Coordination Issues side panel.
