Using Crop Chemistry in Agvance

Overview

Crop Chemistries may be setup and used on Agvance Blend Tickets to denote the ticket is a certain chemistry, allowing the Blend Ticket to be assigned to the correct sprayers. When a Crop Chemistry is selected, it displays on the ticket to help avoid crop damage from incorrect application. 

Setup

A Crop Chemistry type must be setup in the Agvance Blending or Planning module at Setup / Crop Chemistry. Choose Add to create a new Crop Chemistry.  

Enter the name to print on the Blend Ticket and Custom Application sheets to denote the Crop Chemistry.

To set the Crop Chemistry label when creating a Blend Ticket in Agvance Blending or Planning, select from the predefined types that are setup.

The Agvance Blend Ticket and Custom Application sheet print the Crop Chemistry in black, bold type at the top of the documents.

Agronomy managers also have the option to require a Crop Chemistry on a ticket when using certain products.  

Setting up Preference for Crop Chemistry to be Required

Select the Product Classifications button on the Hub / Setup / Company Preferences / Product tab, and choose the Add button. Enter a Name for the classification (‘Crop Chemistry Required’ in the example below), and select the products that should require a Crop Chemistry to be selected on the ticket. 

Note: Optionally, select entire Inventory Departments if desired.

After the classification is setup, navigate to the Blending or Planning module. On the Setup / Location Preferences / Miscellaneous tab, set the Blend Ticket – Crop Chemistry preference to Disallow Save.  

Note: The Blend-Ticket - Crop Chemistry preference may be set to No Checking, Warning Only, or Disallow Save.

From the Select Product Classification to Check dropdown menu, choose the Product Classification that must be checked.

With the preference set to Disallow Save, when one of the products contained in the product classification is used on a Blend Ticket, a Crop Chemistry must be selected before the Blend Ticket may be saved. If a Crop Chemistry is not selected, a warning message displays.
