Drawings and Specifications: Configurable Fieldsets and Custom Fields
This announcement represents a single point in time. Future releases may impact the information below.
Feature Announced: May 05, 2020 / Feature Released: June 04, 2020
Create Fieldsets and Custom Fields for Drawings and Specifications
Company Admins can now create new configurable fieldsets for the Drawings and Specifications tools to designate which fields are required, optional or hidden within projects. See Create New Configurable Fieldsets. After a fieldset is created, new custom fields can also be created and applied to projects' Drawings and Specifications tools. See Create New Custom Fields.
With the ability to customise fields, you can ensure important information related to drawings and specifications is entered and later create custom reports off this custom data. Configurations for fieldsets and custom fields are reflected in projects on Procore's web and mobile applications, so your configurations and custom fields are always presented.
Note: This release is part of a larger initiative to modernise the Drawings tool and introduce additional features. Minor changes were made for editing drawings, however larger improvements will be coming soon. See Edit Drawings.
