Company Administration Work Breakdown Structure Guide

When you are setting up your Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) for the first time, you have a choice between using the default budget code and structure that comes with Procore or you can customize this structure to create your own company level WBS.

This guide shows your company's Procore Administrator how to set up and define a WBS for use with the projects in your company's Procore account.

When getting started with WBS, you can use Procore's default WBS or you can add custom segments. The steps below assume you want to add custom segments to your company's budget code structure.
