Farm Planning and Budgeting Enhancement
Price Change Warning
Within the Commodity plan, users are creating draft recommendations that can be created months before they are submitted. This can cause an issue if pricing for those products has changed or fluctuated between the time of creation and submission. This updated workflow will allow users to always have updated pricing options before submitting their plan based and stand alone recommendations.
We are resolving this issue by warning the users when the first open the Draft recommendation. If any products in the recommendation have updated pricing we will have a popup that updates them as seen below.
We will also show a red icon indicating a change in the Draft view mode.
When user edits the Rec, all Pricing options will be updated to the new available options. Old entered prices that do not equal to any of the new available options will be saved and the Price Type will be set to ‘Custom’.
VR and Zones Updates
Users are now able to duplicate VR events. Duplication will copy over all information, including non-deleted locations, non-deleted sampling and / or zone information, and will use the current commodities for locations. Not copied over: Title, Any Recommendation Links, Any Reports / Exports, Any Processed information within Application Calculation.
When a VR event is duplicated, the user is still able to change the information present with no restriction – it is a shortcut to fill in information that stays the same year-to-year.
To access the Duplicate VR functionality, go to View VR and then access through the Edit VR dropdown.
Minimum List Price Products
Some Pro Markets and other products cannot be sold below the Floor Price. These Products are called MLP or Minimum List Price Products. This update to the Recs and Orders forms will ensure MLP Products cannot be sold below Floor Price.
For these MPL products, if the user tries to go below, we will not allow them to place the order, and given them a popup that says ” MLP Product cannot be sold at less than the Floor Price.”
Addressed Issues
- Fixed issue where a google chrome update broke our mapping tools. This effected the boundary creation and edit, as well as other areas of the application that used those tools. This is now working as expected.
- Updated welcome email to have the current support contact information.
