Below are the notable changes to the project's Main Contracts tool in 2021.
Create Custom Fields and Custom Sections for Main Contracts in the Company Level Admin Tool (07/10/2021)
Procore has added the ability to create custom fields in the Company level Admin tool for the project's Main Contracts tool. These custom fields function like other fields in Procore and can be included in reports in the Company and Project level Reports tools. See Create New Custom Fields. In addition to custom fields, Procore has added the ability to create custom sections for the project's Main Contracts tool. Custom sections allow you to group custom fields together in one or more separate, user-defined sections. Custom sections are displayed below a main contract's 'General Information' section. See Create Custom Sections.

Procore has started the gradual rollout of a new beta version of the Main Contracts tool, which will be distributed to Procore customers in the coming weeks. This update modernises the Main Contracts experience. It also lays the groundwork for additional enhancements to Main Contracts in the future. When this new beta version becomes available in your environment, you will see a blue banner at the top of the Main Contract page. During the beta phase, you will be able to freely switch between the current experience and the new beta experience.
