SUMMARY

Section I: GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Summary screen displays a tabular report for field operations and the on-screen map that was displayed during the operation. The Summary screen can be viewed during data collection to provide a list of each Region total as well as the Field total. 

The primary use of the Summary screen is to review field totals, view maps, and generate reports after an operation is completed.   The Summary screen allows the user to view the on-screen maps and generate application reports when the display is not in the vehicle. 

The RUN screen can be on an active Field in which the vehicle currently resides (but is not currently logging), and the user wishes to view a map of another field while sitting idle. 

If the display is actively logging data, the Summary will default to the same Management and Operation that is occurring on the RUN screen.  The summary View Map button is disabled while logging.

Section II: DESCRIPTION OF SUMMARY

First, select the Grower from the Grower pull-down.  The Field list in the Field pull-down list will be filtered to those that belong to the selected Grower.  Second, select the Field from the Field pull-down.  Third, select the Operation that you wish to view a summary (Planting, Application, Tillage, or Harvest).  The desired Product or Crop can be chosen from the Product pull-down list.  The Summary data will reflect the Grower, Field, Operation, and Product chosen. 

There are four types of summaries that can be displayed which are based on the type of field operation performed.  The columns displayed for each summary type are as follows:

Tillage Summary

• Region
• Area (Acres or Hectares)
• Date Created

Planting Summary:

• Region
• Variety
• Average Rate
• Total Seeds (Total Weight if bulk seeding)
• Area (Acres or Hectares)
• Date Created

Application Summary:

• Region
• Average Rate (units based on Product used in each Region)
• Total Product Applied (units based on Product used in each Region)
• Area (Acres or Hectares)
• Date Created

Harvest Summary:

• Region
• Variety
• Average Yield (Bushels/Acre or Kilograms/Hectare)
• Average Moisture (%)
• Area (Acres or Hectares)
• Weight (Pounds or Kilograms)
• Bushels (not available in metric mode)
• Date Created

If more than one INSTANCE has been logged for the selected Operation and Product, the Regions for each Instance will be grouped successively one after the other in the summary view all at the same time.  A "grand total" of all Instances will be displayed at the bottom of all the Instances.

Once the filter options for Grower, Field, Operation, and Product are selected, the View Map button is enabled to view the completed on-screen map that was created while the operation was performed.   There are a few map options that may be presented depending on the data that is selected.

• If more than one operation was performed in a field of the same product, an Instance selection will be displayed so that the desired map can be displayed.
• If a product was used in both a Site Verification Planting (no rate logged) and Application Rate Planting situation, an window will be displayed to select which map should be displayed.
• If a product was used in both a Site Verification application (no rate logged) and Application Rate situation, an window will be displayed to select which map should be displayed.

Creating Application Reports:

The display has the option to generate application reports automatically when an operation is completed.  If this option is turned off, reports can still be created from the summary screen.  If the as-applied data still resides in the display, the report can be recreated if the automatic report was lost or misplaced. The report generated from the summary will be the same as if the report was created when completing the operation.

• When the Operation is set to Application, the Create Report button will become active if a product application has been performed for the selected field.
• When the Create Report button is pressed, a selection window is displayed that shows the Grower, Field, and Product that were selected on the main Summary screen.
• Two selections must be made to create a report.  The first selection is the Operating Configuration that was used to apply the product(s) that you wish to create a report for.  The second selection is the combination of products, called the Product Group, that were applied together for the report that you wish to create. 
• Since the same Operating Configuration can be use to apply an number of product combinations in the same field, the Operating Configuration selection must be made first to display the appropriate Product Group selections.
• Once the Operating Configuration and Product Group selections have been made, press the ACCEPT button to generate the final application report.
• Press CANCEL at any time if you decide not to create a report.
