This chapter provides an overview of configuring the JD Edwards Grower Management System and discusses how to:
Set up grower cost center defaults.
Set up harvest period patterns.
Set up end use reservation (EUR) definitions.
Set up varieties.
Set up ownership.
Set up style definitions.
Set up default location information.
Set up user-defined codes (UDCs).
Set up automatic accounting instructions (AAIs).
Before you use JD Edwards Grower Management, you need to define information that the system uses during processing. The system setup for JD Edwards Grower Management enables you to configure the system for your business needs and to set up default values that can save you time when processing transactions.
Harvest Patterns
A block can have multiple harvest periods. Each harvest period can have multiple harvests. The harvest is a representation of an individual block usage for a period of a growing cycle.
For example, apples are grown and harvested during an annual cycle. The harvest patterns in the northern hemisphere might be named 2007 NH, 2008 NH, and so forth.
Before you complete the tasks in this section:
Turn on system code SY40G.
Set up UDCs for harvest period patterns (40G/HP).
Create a supplier master in the Supplier Master Revisions program (P04012).
Create a wine master in the Winery Master program (P31B01).
Create material types in the Material Type Revisions program (P31B04).
See Entering Supplier Master Information.
See Setting Up Wineries.
See Setting Up Material Types.
This section provides an overview of grower cost center defaults, lists a prerequisite and discusses how to set up grower cost center defaults.
Each grower cost center can have its own default units of measure and harvest pattern. The system populates the block and harvest records with these default units of measure and harvest patterns and they cannot be overridden.
Note. If you choose to have the system automatically display a grower cost center when you access a form, you must use the Default Locations and Printers program (P400951).

This section provides an overview of end-use reservation (EUR) definitions, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to create EUR definitions. EURs are also referred to as intended use.
EURs are codes that you assign to the end product of the harvested crop. For example, when you are growing broccoli, 60 percent of the crop may be sold in bulk to local producers while the remaining 40 percent is used for the fresh market and is packaged by crowns, spears, and florets.
You can designate similar or related EURs as subordinate to a parent EUR. For example, a parent broccoli EUR might have several subordinate EURs if the parent broccoli is to be used in several broccoli end lots.
EURs are used to support the production planning process only.
When you create an EUR definition, you define information about the end products to which you allocate lots or blocks. You must create a short code and attach a brand code. You can specify the harvest period, as well as the primary appellation, wine family, and variety for the EUR. If the EUR that you are defining is a sub-EUR, you can enter a parent EUR.
You extend the EUR definition by defining a set of planning assumptions that enable you to analyze possible advance planning scenarios based on marketing requirements. However, these planning assumptions are for information only, and the system does not validate them. You can set up the following assumptions for an EUR:
Assumption |
Description |
Table |
Parameters for the quality results of the bulk material that is assigned to the EUR. |
Harvest Assumptions (F31B0710) |
|
Parameters for permissible loss thresholds to estimate the quantity of bulk material that is required for the EUR. |
EUR Loss Assumptions (F31B0730) |
|
Ability to set up a plan to purchase bulk material for various types of activities in different types of quantities. Addition and removal of other EURs. |
Planning Assumptions (F31B0740) EUR Cull and Cascade (F31B0741) |
|
Conversion rates that are used for planning assumptions. |
EUR Conversion Assumptions (F31B0760) |
You can edit an EUR definition only if you have not created an EUR profile version. When an EUR profile version exists, you can view the EUR definition, but the Edit EUR Definition form becomes read-only, preventing you from making any changes to the EUR definition. You can delete an EUR only if it was never used.

This section provides an overview of default location information, lists prerequisites, and discusses how to set up a default location.
Many of the forms within JD Edwards Grower Management require that you specify a location, such as a grower cost center, to which you are assigned. You can set up default locations for each person in the organization. When you set up default location information, you assign a branch/plant, blend business unit, grower cost center, and print queue to a user ID or terminal ID that the system uses every time you sign in to a JD Edwards EnterpriseOne application. If the system uses the default locations, it automatically displays the branch/plant, blend business unit, or grower cost center on the appropriate forms. If no default location information is assigned to a user ID or terminal ID, then the user must enter the locations manually.
When you set up a default location, you also can define an approval route code if you use approval routing for purchase orders. Default print queues represent the location where the system sends certain types of documents. You can assign a default print queue so that each time you print, the system sends the document to the default print queue. If you have not assigned a default print queue, the system first accesses the print queues that were assigned in the version list, and then accesses the print queue that is assigned to the user profile. Print programs that you have automatically defined access to the Default Print Queues table (F40096). To display other print programs, modify them to access the F40096 table, and set them up as user-defined codes.
Before you complete the tasks in this section:
Verify that you have set up branch/plants, blend business units, and grower cost centers.
Verify that you have set up print queue codes in UDC table (40/PP).

This section provides an overview of UDCs for JD Edwards Grower Management.
UDCs enable you to configure the way the system operates. Many programs in the JD Edwards Grower Management system use UDCs to process information. Some UDCs are shipped with predefined data. You can change or delete the predefined data if it is not hard-coded, and add UDCs to suit your own needs.

You set up AAIs to determine the accounts to which the system distributes general ledger entries.
In JD Edwards Grower Management, the system creates journal entries when you create a weigh tag. You also can enter memo text for each AAI.The system uses multiple AAI tables, each of which applies to a certain type of transaction. In each table, you specify a general ledger account for each unique combination of company, document type, and general ledger class. Besides the AAIs that are specific for JD Edwards Grower Management, you will also use distribution AAIs.
