Generate a QR Code for a Submittal

Objective

To generate a Quick Response (QR) code for a submittal.

Background

You can generate a QR code for a submittal using the steps below and then print it out to place it at a location on a job site. This allows project team members in the field to quickly access information stored in Procore from a mobile device.

Things to Consider

• Required User Permission:
  • 'Read-only' level permissions or higher on the Submittals tool.
• Additional Information:
  • Procore generates one (1) unique QR code per submittal item.
    Important!  You must scan this QR code using a mobile device running one of Procore's mobile apps. See Scan a Submittal QR Code (Android) or Scan a Submittal QR Code (iOS).

Prerequisites

• 'Enable QR Codes on Submittal Items and Custom PDF Templates' tickbox must be marked in the Submittals settings. See Configure Settings: Submittals Tool.

Steps

1. Navigate to the project's Submittals tool.
2. Locate the submittal that you want to generate a QR code for. Then click View. 
3. Click the vertical ellipsis, then click Generate QR Code. 
   Notes:
   • If the button is not available for use, see the Prerequisites above. 
   • You can then use your web browser's print controls to either (1) print this page for use on the job site or (2) to export a copy of the page to the PDF format.
   • The QR code for the submittal is static. It is unique to the submittal and cannot be changed once its created.
