Add a Revision to a Budget in Portfolio Financials

 Note
This information is intended for accounts with the Portfolio Financials and Capital Planning products in Procore. Please reach out to your Procore point of contact for more information. 

Objective

To add a revision to a project's budget in Portfolio Financials.

Background

The Budget tab within the Cost Tracker allows you to build project budgets with variances and anticipated costs. There are two different budgeting methods that you can use in Portfolio Financials: a broken down budget, which will allow you to assign budgets to individual cost items through the Cost Tracker and an overall (lump sum) budget, where you have one amount for the entire project. If you start with overall budget, you can choose to break it down later. However, if you start with a broken down budget, you will not be able to go back to an overall budget. 

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
    • 'Full Access' to the project or higher.
  • Additional Information:
    • You cannot add a budget revision if there is currently a draft revision. You can either edit the existing revision on the Budget tab, or choose to discard it. 
    • If you want to enter budget values by cost per square foot, a square footage value must exist for the project.
