Symptoms

Growers of crops and winemakers must track certain, special attributes of the crop by Harvest Period (vintage) for commercial reasons and/or compliance reasons, and be able to view those attributes in the lot detail of the resulting wine.  Examples of Ownership in real world use are:

1. Tracking winery/branch as owner (Ownership)

2. Tracking third-party customer as owner (Ownership)

PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:

Ownership cannot be saved for a Grower Harvest, even though Ownership is supported at Grower Block level and Blend Lot Level.

BUSINESS IMPACTS:

• no ability to track Ownership by Harvest Period even though these attributes can change yearly;

• natural flow of ERP information from Grower Farm to Grower Block to Grower Harvest to Blend Lot is interrupted (noting that Ownership begins at the Grower Farm);

• excessive manual data management is required to continually override Ownership at Grower Block level and/or at Blend Lot level, because the natural level to express the information (Grower Harvest) is unavailable;

• risk of user input errors and decision-making errors involving Ownership is increased.

PROPOSED SOLUTION:

1. Introduce sub forms for Ownership in Grower Harvests, similar to Grower Blocks;

2. Default the Ownership for Grower Harvests from the Grower Blocks;

3. Pass the Ownership in Grower Harvests to Blend Management in Weigh Tag operations.
