Create an Inspection
Things to Consider
- Required User Permissions
- Additional Information:
- After a company template is copied to your project, it becomes a project template that can be modified without affecting the company template from which it originated.
- Project templates may be modified in the Project level Inspections tool throughout the duration of the project, but changes will only be reflected on project checklists that are created from the modified template.
- You can use a default inspection template more than once.
- To create an inspection for equipment, you must first configure the following settings:
- The Equipment tool must be enabled for your project. See Add and Remove Project Tools.
- Equipment records must be added to your project. See Add or Remove Equipment from Projects.
- Equipment must be enabled on your configurable fieldset for inspections. See Edit Configurable Fieldsets.

Bulk Create Option
In Beta
The Bulk Create Inspections feature is currently in open beta and can be enabled within Procore Explore.With the bulk create feature, you can quickly create multiple inspections with identical details to save time.
- In the new field titled Number of Inspections, enter the desired quantity. You can use the up/down arrows or type the number directly.
- Optionally, you can set the starting number for the inspections in the sequence. For example, if you set the starting number to 64 and the number of inspections to 5, the inspections will be numbered sequentially starting at 64.
- Fill in all the other inspection details (e.g., location, assignee, due date) as you normally would.
Note: All the inspections created in this bulk action will have the exact same details. This feature does not allow you to assign different locations or assignees for each individual inspection. - Once you have filled in all the details, click Create.
