Work Orders are used to establish work that needs to be done, including When, Where, Who and What needs to be completed. They can be assigned, printed, or also accessed in the Cropwise Financials mobile app to complete as an Application. When a Work Order is printed, it includes important information for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), Active Ingredients (AI), and Restricted-Entry (REI) and Pre-Harvest Intervals (PHI).
To begin creating a Work Order, navigate to the Production tab on the left side menu. Click Production, then choose Work Order. On the Work Order screen, select + Create Work Order.
1. Work Order Details
Navigate through the three tabs at the top, starting with Work Order Details. The required information is indicated by an asterisk (*), including Work Order ID, Work Type, Start Date & Time, and Authorization Date. These items are auto populated to make creating a Work Order easier but can easily be changed.
- New for Applications and Work Orders - Use the Tab button or hot keys, such as the first letter of the word, to quickly navigate through each screen. (ex. q - quart, p- pint, f - fluid oz.)
New to the Work Order process, People, Companies and Equipment can be created while creating a Work Order.
Tags can be created or added to a Work Order to add visual indicators for easier identification in the list of all Work Orders. Notes can also be entered to add additional details to the Work Order.
2. Select Properties
Next, navigate to the Select Properties tab of the Work Order. Fields can be sorted by Farm or by Crop. Fields can also be selected on the map. Once the fields and crop zones are selected, choose the Save Selection button in the lower right.
The list of selected crop zones will be displayed, where the acreage or coverage percentage can be adjusted per crop zone or for the whole Application. Crop zones that have a Reported and Boundary area will appear with a pencil icon on the right side of the coverage percentage. Selecting the pencil icon will give the option to choose between the Reported or Boundary areas.
3. Select Products
The last step is to Select Products. Products will be displayed with recently used products first, also known as My Product List. Select the Green + to add the product or use the search function at the top. Products can also be filtered by type to make it easier to find the correct product.
Once the + is selected on a product, a tab will appear to enter the product details. Products will default to Rate per Acre but can be changed to Total Product. The rate and unit will auto populate from the last entered values. Cost will populate if it was previously saved as a List Price.
Custom Fertilizers or Services can be created from the product search page or use the Request feature to add Crop Protection products or Seed varieties. Click here for more information on creating custom products.
After adding the product(s) to the Work Order, close the product window using the X or the Done button.
On the Select Products tab, the Tank Information can be toggled on or adjusted for the Work Order. Toggling the Tank Information on will add two sections, one to edit the tank details and a second for the Carrier. The carrier can be changed from water to a liquid fertilizer, or it can be hidden. The carrier is calculated by subtracting the total of liquid products added to the record from the entered tank information.

Next, select Save Work Order.
After saving the Work Order, a confirmation will popup in the upper right corner. It will also give the option to Duplicate or Print the Work Order.
The Work Order details can be easily viewed by selecting a Work Order from the list, then navigating through the tabs of the Work Order information.
