Site Diary - Release Notes

Customisable Site Diary Names for Consistent Terminology (23/10/2025)

Procore has introduced the customization of Site Diary names at the company level. This customization addresses the challenge of inflexible naming conventions that previously limited usability of the Site Diary tool.  Using the new Custom Name column within the Site Diary settings in the Admin tool, you can rename or customise the default Site Diary names for all projects. The customization of Site Diary names enables you to:

• Align with your company's unique terminology for clarity and consistency.

• Tailor the Site Diary tool to your specific needs and utilise the tool more effectively.

• Streamline operational workflows for your project teams.

For more information, see Customise Site Diary Names.
