Answer

Yes. In Procore, different language and point-of-view dictionary settings can be applied to the Procore web application at the Company, Project and User level.  To learn about the available options, see What dictionaries and languages are available in the Procore web application?

 Note
Users can also change the language settings for their Procore for Android or Procore for iOS devices. To learn how, see User Level Language Changes: Mobile Devices below.

Company Level Language Changes

The language setting for your company's Procore account is set during the implementation process. If you want to change this setting at a later time, your company's Procore Administrator must submit an email request to your Procore point of contact. To learn about the available options, see What dictionaries and languages are available in the Procore web application?

Project Level Language Changes

Users with the required user permissions on the Project level Admin tool can change the setting for a project. This setting is located in the 'General' tab under the Project Settings in the Project level Admin tool. For instructions and important information about changing this setting, see Update General Project Information: Advanced.

User Level Language Changes: Web

Users can change their individual language setting on the My Profile Settings page, using the 'Country - Language' drop-down list. For instructions and important notes about changing this setting, see Change Your Account Language in 'My Profile Settings'.

User Level Language Changes: Mobile Devices

Users can change the language displayed in Procore's mobile application by adjusting the language of their mobile device. When you change your device's default language to a language supported by Procore, the language displayed in Procore's mobile app will automatically update. However, this language change is specific to your mobile device and will not affect the language associated with your company or project in Procore's web application. To adjust your device's language, see the links below:

 Tip
  • For a consistent experience across Procore's web and mobile applications, the language settings in your Procore account and on mobile device should match each other whenever possible.
  • Some languages may require additional setting changes.
    • If your Procore account uses English (United Arab Emirates):
      • Change the Language on iOS devices to English and the Region to United Arab Emirates.
      • Change the Language on Android devices to English/United Kingdom.

Considerations for a Language Change

  • When a language other than English is selected, only Procore defined values are translated. For example, if a Company Admin adds custom 'trades' that are in English, the trades will still appear in English.
  • User defined text is not translated. For example, if someone responds to an RFI in English, the response will remain in English, regardless of which language is selected.
  • While Procore is striving towards language feature parity, not all features have the same level of language support as English. If you have questions, please email: support@procore.com
