When you use your online account for the first time, you’ll be prompted to fill in some basic information for your account organization, as shown below. Name your organization to match your business (for example, Smith Farms or 3R Farms). Your Organization Name is also known as your Purchasing Organization when managing licenses in your account. It’s also helpful to know your Organization Name if you choose to add upgrades to your account (such as extra Vehicle Connections) later through the online Marketplace or through your reseller.

Next, click here to see steps on updating your profile.

Each time that you login or use your account, you’ll start by selecting your preferred crop year, which will default to the latest crop year saved. The crop year ties your activities and records together under a single point of reference so that you can organize and view information year over year.

When you first use your account, you’ll be prompted to set up your crop year and primary crop, as shown below (you can change it later, if needed). This initial setup for crop year needs to completed online so that the system can organize your records, and prior to using the mobile app for the first time.

The online account has more options that you can review during initial setup, or change as needed, such as adding additional crop years, adding seed varieties to your purchased materials used during planting, and more. Follow these steps or scroll down to watch our video:

1. Log in to your account online (learn more)
2. Click the dropdown arrow next to the crop year (top left)
3. Click Manage Crop Years
   
   
4. On the Commodities menu displayed in the main window, click the Crop Seasons tab
5. Click the +Add Crop Season button
   
6. On the Create Crop Season pop-up window, select options in each dropdown list or enter changes as needed (required fields are displayed with an asterisk*)
   
   
   • Harvest Year (required) – also known as crop year; select from the dropdown list
   • Crop (required) – select from the list of crops already entered your account, or click the +Add Crops link to select from the master list of crops available in your region
   • Subcrop (optional) – enter a name (for example, if your crop is corn, your subcrop could be entered as popcorn)
   • Activities Start Date and Activities End Date (required) – click the calendar  icons to adjust dates (for example, depending on the crop, climate zone and type of activities planned for your operation including soil testing and prep, you can set your own start and end date outside of standard seasonal cycles; as well, if you’re connecting data to your account from vehicle equipment displays that don’t have a crop season defined, these start and end dates are used to match your data to the correct crop season for the field)
   • Default Yield Potential (optional) – enter an estimated average crop yield that can serve as a benchmark when comparing crop plans on your account
7. Click Save (or Cancel)

For help with deleting a crop year from your account, contact customer support.
