Procore PDM now empowers project teams to create and manage document placeholders—virtual markers for documents that are expected but not yet available. Each placeholder captures essential metadata such as document name, type, due date, and responsible party, providing a structured and centralized way to track anticipated deliverables directly within Procore. This enhancement eliminates the need for external spreadsheets or manual follow-ups, making it easier to plan for required documents, assign clear ownership, and set expectations with contributors.
With placeholders, teams gain greater visibility into missing or overdue documents, helping to reduce project delays and ensure accountability. By defining naming conventions and metadata in advance, you can also maintain consistency and streamline the document upload process when the actual files are ready.
