Introducing Field Manager PRO 2013, Field Manager PRO 360 2013, and our new app – FM PRO Mobile

June is shaping up to be a big month for farmers who want the most from their production: introducing Field Manager PRO 2013 and Field Manager PRO 360 2013.

But the news doesn’t stop there. FM PRO Mobile, our new app for Apple and Android users will be ready to download as well. 

Whether you use an iPhone, iPad, or Android device, FM PRO mobile is designed to synchronize with your desktop version of Field Manager PRO 360 and Field Manager PRO. To use the synchronize functions, you’ll need the current software versions. If you have Field Manager PRO 360, you’ll also be able to access the GPS/GIS functions of the application from your mobile device. 

The latest version of Field Manager PRO and Field Manager PRO 360 has been amped up for 2013. Here are some things to look for: 

View your crop records like never before

  • Now you can display your crop records in a calendar view on your Crop Records dialogue window.

Improved setup of the Field Manager PRO 360 GIS

  • After defining the location of the farm, you can see the streets and roads in the defined area.
  • Now you can cut out pieces of the polygon to mark landmarks such as rocks and waterways. You can also have multiple polygons on a field. 

Better zoom features

  • We added new zooms – 1:150000, 1:200000 and 1:250000.
  • The software will now default back to the last zoom scale that you used.

New GIS Import features

  • Now you can import and export GPS waypoints (in the .gpx format) from other GIS tools such as Garmin, Trimble and Tom Tom. Waypoints are collected using a GPS receiver (points). They could be marking rocks, washouts, areas of interest in the field or other landmarks. In Field Manager PRO 360, those waypoints could be used to trace the field boundary or to mark a point for observations.

New and improved by you – AgExpert Analyst 2013

New and improved by you – AgExpert Analyst 2013

Want an accurate picture of your business? Simpler meetings with accountants? AgExpert Analyst 2013 is the best version we’ve released – try it and see for yourself.

Start your software conversion

Get started by upgrading to the latest update of AgExpert Analyst 2012-04 or 2012-05. Be sure your data file is in normal mode before importing to AgExpert Analyst 2013. Why? The 2012-04 or 2012-05 upgrades were created to detect any defects that might cause failure in the new software import. You’ll get a conversion report that will list the corrections you need to fix to ensure your 2013 version works properly.

Better year-end management

Instead of creating a new data file for a specific year, the 2013 version creates a new year in the data file. In previous versions of AgExpert Analyst, you had to go through the year-end process to finalize or partially finalize the previous year just to continue on with the next fiscal year. Now, you can add a new fiscal year with two simple clicks.

Happy accountant, happy life

We’ve simplified the way you submit files to your accountant – now you can create an accountant’s copy and a copy for yourself. This way, you work on one version while your accountant can make adjustments to another. Once finished, your accountant sends back the file and you can import into yours. The adjustment and year-end process has never been easier.

Change the date of your transactions

Here’s a big improvement – transactions can now be back-dated and post-dated to any fiscal year that exists in the database. Before, you were limited to the fiscal year when it came to entering transactions. Now as long as the fiscal year has been created, you can postdate or backdate the transaction, making payroll and entries for the next year, even though you are not done working on your file, simple.
