Understanding Weigh Tag Operations

A weigh tag is a specialized procurement transaction that you use to receive crops into your processing facility. Your harvest receipt is part of a weigh tag, which results when a vehicle crosses a weigh bridge.

You record the weight of the received crop, along with attributes, such as quality, end-use reservation (EUR), and costs, to provide more information on the crop. You can use this information in the blending process in the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Blend Management system. While a weigh tag is generally a weight transaction, you can define different units of measure or use product variants (matrix items) to receive items in unit quantities rather than weight only.

You can use scale tickets or other non-weigh bridge documents to provide the information for in the weigh tag receipt.
