Create a Lookahead Programme

Objective

To create a lookahead in the project level Programme tool.   

Things to Consider

  • Required User Permissions:
    • To create a lookahead programme:
      • 'Admin' permissions on the project's Programme tool.
        OR
      • 'Read Only' or 'Standard' level permissions on the Programme tool with the 'Create Lookaheads' granular permission enabled on your permissions template.
  • Additional Information:
    • When you create a Lookahead in Procore, it will not show up on an integrated programme in Procore (e.g. Microsoft Project, Primavera).
    • Lookaheads populate directly from the master programme. To see changes made to the master programme reflected on the lookahead you will need to re-upload the master programme and create a new Lookahead programme. 
    • You can create multiple lookahead programmes within the same project. See Create Next Lookahead.
  • Prerequisites:
    • In order to create a Lookahead, you must have Admin permissions and already have a master programme uploaded in Procore. See Upload a Project Programme File

Steps

  1. Navigate to the project's Programme tool. 
  2. Click the Lookaheads tab.
  3. Click the +Create Lookahead button.

      Note: If the date ranges of your new Lookahead overlaps with the most previous Lookahead, the tasks and subtasks from the most previous Lookahead will carry over to the new Lookahead.
