Overview

Learn how to select and input plants into your Work Order, whether you're pulling from a specific batch or location.


Before You Start

  • Be clear on which plants are approved for input

  • Know the source batch name or physical location


Step 1: Input Plants Using a Source Batch

This form is best when you’re starting with a known plant batch.

  1. In the Work Order, click Add Input → choose Plants

  2. Select the Source Batch

  3. (Optional) Select the Source Lot

  4. Decide how to add:

    • Use Remaining Plants to input all

    • Use Specific Plant Ids to choose individual IDs

    • Or manually enter a Number of Plants

  5. Add the Timestamp

  6. Click + Add to complete the entry

Pro Tip: If plant IDs are pre-selected during harvest planning, use the ID dropdown to match exactly.

🗒️ Note: Enabling Specific Plant Ids replaces the Number field with a multi-select list.


Step 2: Input All Plants From a Location

This form is designed for quick input of all plants physically grouped by location.

  1. From your Work Order, select By Location

  2. Pick the Source Location from the dropdown

  3. Choose the Timestamp for when plants were moved or processed

  4. Click + Add to confirm

Pro Tip: Use this method when the entire location is part of the operation—no need for batch-level sorting.

🗒️ Note: You won’t be able to filter by batch or ID—this form is all-in by design.


Troubleshooting

  • Problem: My batch isn’t showing in the form

    • Fix: Confirm the batch is open and that plants are still assigned to it.

  • Problem: I don’t see any plant IDs when “Use Specific Plant Ids” is enabled

    • Fix: Make sure plants in the selected batch are still available and not already used.

  • Problem: No plants appear when I select a location

    • Fix: Only active, unassigned plants will be pulled by this form. Use the Cultivation Batches page to confirm plant status and location.
