Delete Cost Codes in StructShare
You have the ability to delete Cost Codes in StructShare that you no longer use.
If the Cost Code is associated with an order in the system, you will still see that Cost Code associated to that order but the "hidden" Cost Code will no longer be available as an option to select in your 'Cost Code' dropdown.
If you have multiple Cost Codes deleted, or wish to view a list of "active" Cost Codes, you can select the 'Show/Hide Deleted' on the top right hand side of the 'Cost Codes' screen.
If you manually added or imported a'Cost Code' you have the ability to edit this 'Cost Code'. If you imported a 'Cost Code' from your ERP, the edit will need to happen in your ERP.
Procore Users
If you are integrated with Procore, when you re-sync a Project, your Cost Code list will update to match what is in Procore. E.g. if you hide Cost Codes in Procore, they will automatically be hidden in StructShare. If you delete Cost Codes form Procore (as long as they are not associated to any POs, they will be removed from StructShare during the re-sync.
