· | Only use "Stock Control" when absolutely necessary; i.e., complex stock monitoring, or price averaging.

There is no point entering a seed bag into stock when you are going to use it all on one field.
|
Price averaging is useful if you purchase several tonnes of fertiliser and come the time to apply it you run out and have to buy in an extra few tonnes and need the price across all the applications to be averaged.

|
· | Have all your fields entered to use "Batch Processing" to full advantage. Batch Processing is the first skill to learn.
|
· | An application only needs a Product Name, price and rate.
|
· | Use "Total Product" and "Total Cost" and let Field Track work out the price/unit and rate. It will be far more accurate.
|
· | Do not worry about using the "Application Mix" function until you understand basic data entry. There is limited gain in data entry speed using this feature.
|
· | The "Pricing Database" is simply a list of products and prices. It is not stock control.
|
· | Only enter the information you need to, or want. It is easier to enter more information the more knowledgeable you are about the software.
|
· | You intend to enter a 3 chemical tank mix.
|
· | Set up your batch processing options.
|
· | Enter the first chemical's information and select "Apply Mix". This places the information in the "Application Mix" list.
|
· | Enter your second chemical and select "Apply Mix".
|
· | Enter your final (3rd) chemical of the mix. You now have two possible ways to proceed. You can select "Apply" and Field Track will apply everything currently in your "Application Mix" list, as well as the application currently entered (your 3rd chemical). You could also select "App Mix", however to apply all these chemicals to the field(s) you would need to view the "Application Mix" and select "Apply" from within this feature.
