Mobile, Seed Store and "sow" much more
- MOBILE APP (ANDROID)
- โข Plantech ERP now installs as a home-screen app on Android: open the site in
- Chrome, tap "Install Plantech on this phone". Full screen, Plantech-green
- status bar, app shortcuts (Scouting, Scan batch, Seed Spot, Deliveries).
- โข Works offline: the app opens without coverage and anything saved in the
- field syncs automatically when the connection returns.
- GERMINATION SCOUTING (NEW, MOBILE)
- โข Scouts sample a few trays per order ~14 days after sowing; the mobile app
- computes the success rate โ one loss field per sampled tray, each with
- its own photo.
- โข Photos are stamped with the order, tray, declared dead count and date;
- the untouched high res original is kept alongside.
- โข The due list builds itself โ no walking the greenhouse to find what to
- check. Orders past their window flag as missing. Greenhouse and client
- filters remember each scout's last choice.
- โข Early checks are allowed but marked, so a low early count is never read
- as final germination. Rechecks (+1/+2/+3 weeks) stay out of the daily
- queue until their day, then raise a revisit alarm.
- โข Crop issues (disease, pests, damping offโฆ) can be reported with any
- reading โ an issue on a healthy rate shows as "issue", not "low".
- LIVE SCOUTING (New Module)
- โข A live feed of scout reports as they come in โ defaults to the last
- 24 hours with range, status, scout, crop and issue filters plus search.
- Any row opens the full report with photos and the weather at entry.
- โข Alert rules are configurable: below 85% flags and alerts Production;
- below 80% sends an immediate heads-up to Sales, Production and
- Management; issue reports alert Production. Every rule's threshold,
- seed-origin scope, severity and departments can be edited.
- โข Local weather (temperature, humidity, wind, rain) is captured
- automatically on every scout entry. (we used local meteo weather reported from a station at Karagite, might be a little different than on the farm)
- โข Weekly germination report: emails itself on a chosen day with the plain
- Excel attached, or runs on demand. A printable digest adds a one-page
- summary cover โ stats, varieties to watch, issue patterns, best/worst
- photos โ with the individual reports from page 2, so you can print just
- the summary. Admins also get per-scout performance: reporting pace,
- over/under-reporting vs the team per crop, and reported rates checked
- against the final out-turn of finished batches.
- PRODUCTION PHASES
- โข Ready orders no longer offer phase buttons โ the cycle closes at Ready.
- โข Sowing runs itself: it starts when seed is issued and completes at
- Planting Confirmation using the confirmed count; the next phase starts
- automatically and notifies its department. Partial sowings stay open.
- Manual handovers (two-agronomist rule) are unchanged from Germination on.
- SEED STORE
- โข Supplier is now mandatory when receiving Plantech-owned seed.
- โข Seed Balances (renamed) now includes Plantech stock alongside client
- balances, each with a printable per-lot item ledger โ every motion in
- and out, with dates, quantities, who did it, and a running balance.
- Ledger filters are type-to-find (built for a 10k+ client book).
- โข Expiry dates on lots, days-in-store tracking, and automatic alerts for
- low stock (per variety per holder), approaching expiry, and overstay.
- โข FIFO issuing: lots list oldest-first; issuing past an older lot is
- allowed but permanently recorded as a FIFO bypass.
- โข Abnormal deviation (beyond ยฑ5%) shows red on Movements by PO; clicking
- a row opens a summary with an undo option while sowing is unconfirmed.
- โข Seed audit (admin): 90 days of per-person patterns โ deviations, seed
- issued but never sown, FIFO bypasses, write-offs, undo habits,
- reference-weight edits, off-hours motion โ with a watchlist on top.
- โข Seed Spot (new): blind spot-check audits. Random lots at a random time;
- the checker scans, weighs and photographs without ever seeing book
- values, and every result reads the same. Deviations alarm Management
- silently. Cadence, lot count and tolerance are admin settings.
- LABELS & PRINTING
- โข Mobile receipt printers (Zebra ZQ511) supported over the print bridge,
- with a step-by-step setup guide, receipt templates (Payment, Delivery,
- Order) and demo 3" slips. Receipts print with a proper top margin.
- โข Office document printers (HP/Lexmark class) supported for page-size
- forms on 8.5ร11 over the same bridge, with reachability monitoring
- (green/red status per printer).
- โข Label designer: fields can be centre/right aligned so real data stays
- centred instead of overrunning; elements snap to a grid; barcodes can
- show or hide the human-readable line; clicking a template opens the
- designer directly.
- REPORTS
- โข Germination Success report (matches the requested layout) with Excel
- export, plus the printable weekly digest above. Print output uses
- darker text for clean paper copies.
