John Deere’s AgLogic™ program is a system of software apps and hardware devices used by retailers to handle the logistics of custom applying ag inputs. It involves an in-the-office dispatching program and in-the-field software that runs on a handheld device typically carried inside the application rig.
SSI has developed an interface that sends Agvance Blend Tickets and maps to AgLogic as Work Orders in real-time, as they are created.
Setup
To configure Agvance to utilize the AgLogic interface, go to Hub / Setup / Company Preferences. On the Preferences window, hold down the Shift + Control + Alt keys while right-clicking Cancel to access the hidden configuration.
Check the box to Use AgLogic and enter the User Name and Password supplied by John Deere. If there is a Product Set in Blending being used for Anhydrous Ammonia and the Type is set to Other, then the Assume Other Product Set Type is Anhydrous option will need checked. There is also a choice concerning the status of the tickets to send to AgLogic. Choose to send either Custom Applied and Loaded, Custom Applied, or Loaded tickets to AgLogic. After selecting the proper settings, choose Save. This is a company-wide setting. All Blending users at all locations will be able to use AgLogic programming once this configuration screen is saved.
After this step has been completed, any time a Blend Ticket is created and meets the proper criteria, the ticket will automatically be sent to the AgLogic portal upon saving the Blend Ticket. At this point, any issues a retailer experiences operating AgLogic or accessing a job sent from Agvance should be resolved by contacting the John Deere software helpdesk at 888-GRN-STAR.
