Objective

To create a Project in your StructShare instance.

Background

In StructShare, a project record should be created for any project you are ordering materials, equipment, or supplies to. This record will hold critical information about the project like the project name and project address. Once a project is added into your project database, the project will be available for reference against Material Requests, Purchase Orders, Rental Orders, Service Orders, Return Orders, Labor Logs and Invoices.

Things to Consider

  • Required Permissions:

    • Note that only ‘System Admins’ and 'Project Admins' can add Projects to the database. This is a permission setting that can be found in the Users and Permissions settings.

  • If Integrating with Procore:

    • Projects can be added to StructShare through an integration with Procore. Please speak to your StructShare Account Manager if this will be the best option for your team.

  • Import Capability:

    • If you intend to add multiple Projects into StructShare you can leverage our import template.

  • Add a Single Project into StructShare
