Version 10 
    These updates are for version 10 clients only.
Get updates using the "SendToPDC" application in your 'C:\AgTrak' folder. To download the "SendToPDC" application, go the the support tab and follow the instructions.

PhytoTrak build 168 This update corrects Bonus Pay timecard entry for Blue Skies clients.  

PhytoTrak build 167 This update corrects incorrect "time across day" message for certain clients.  

PhytoTrak build 166 This update includes an extended "Pay for Performance Bonus". You can define a pay matrix to pay piece rate on performance. For example, the jobclass pays $A per hour, but if the employee exceeds "x1" number of pieces per hour, they receive a bonus of "y1" per piece. If the employee exceeds "x2" pieces per hour, they receive "y2" per piece... and so on 

PhytoTrak build 165 This updates excludes deleted AND hidden blocks and subdivisions from acreage and count totals for Phases, Ranches and Enterprises.

PhytoTrak build 164 This updates corrects Day of Week error in Editor for Piece Pools.

PhytoTrak build 163B This updates the Edit Validation report.

PhytoTrak build 163A This updates History by Ranch report.

PhytoTrak build 163 This corrects 'Null' value error after copying "Hours only" entry in the editor.

PhytoTrak build 162A This corrects trial payroll 'FROM' clause error.

PhytoTrak build 162 This corrects layout problem in TSDE.

PhytoTrak build 161A This corrects special report processing.

PhytoTrak build 161 This corrects incorrect day selection.

PhytoTrak build 160 This corrects Peel-by-Day record selection.

PhytoTrak build 159A This adjusts the Famous export of OT pieces to conform to Famous specs.

PhytoTrak build 159 This update adds the ability to add employee hours to a block & job class directly (non time & attendance). Internal day counters for the data had to be modified in order to accomplish this, so any existing data when first using this build needs to be converted. This is easily accomplished by entering the editor and then exiting the editor (you don't have to make any changes). The new functionality is accessed in TSDE (Time Sheet Data Entry) by selecting 'Hours Only'.

PhytoTrak build 158 This makes some changes in the Famous O/T export, including flip-flopping earnings codes when incentive pay is in effect. 

PhytoTrak build 157B This corrects a SureHarvest Import error. 

PhytoTrak build 157A This changes the PPG Exclusion from automatically going to the default printer. 

PhytoTrak build 157 This includes updates for PPGs. The peel now includes piece count and piece pools where all pool members are part of the PPG. The pool WILL NOT be split by a peel to the PPG. Instead an exclusion report is produced listing individuals that share the pool that are not part of the PPG. Tech access required.

PhytoTrak build 156 This includes a selection of ADP export file types. Tech access required.

PhytoTrak build 155 This allows rule exceptions to be checked when calculations are based upon a primary rule setup. Anyone using multiple rules needs this update.

PhytoTrak build 154 This corrects employee import error.

PhytoTrak build 153 This update introduces the idea of "Processing Groups' (PPG) for multi-user clients.  This allows them to define these groups and peel the data to concurrent clients based upon these groups, for processing of time records only.... Pieces and pools will not be peeled. As a result, the data cannot be submitted from these special concurrent clients, but must be returned to the base client and submitted from there.

PhytoTrak build 152 This allows a specified labor rule to be in effect for the entire payperiod when work is performed in ANY day in ANY of the JobClasses governed by it. To activate this feature a configuration change must be made by Tech Support.

PhytoTrak build 151 This includes the addition of a "Commodity" filter for historical records.

PhytoTrak build 150 This includes a correction for un-allocated equipment records.

PhytoTrak build 149 This includes an update for the Historical Comparison Report.

PhytoTrak build 148 This includes an update for Blue Skies and ADP clients in particular but also for Datatech, Famous, Ito, Distinctive & Red Wing. The primary changes have to do with account assignments for various earnings types, but also includes a new account type "Minimum Wage Adjustment" that will create a separate line item on Blue Skies checks. I'm hoping to do the same thing with the other payroll programs and services but some trials will have to be performed. If you want to be a beta tester for your payroll program let me know. 
    The other major item is the ability to assign ADP earnings codes for piece work based upon the 'Harvest / Non-harvest' checkbox in the Job Class setup.
    Both of these items will require some setup assistance from me. Give me a call if your interested.

PhytoTrak build 147 This includes an update for 'SendToPDC.exe'. The confusion between the program name and the destination folder has now been resolved. When you 'Prepare Data' it will now place the data files for you to email in the 'C:\Bill Hold\Data For PDC' folder.

PhytoTrak build 146 This includes error correction for multiple overtime rules. This must be activated by PDC Tech and the primary rule must be selected in Rule Setup.

PhytoTrak build 145 This includes support for multiple overtime rule clients in the same workday or workweek were that were set by a 1977 Superior Court decision in California Asparagus Growers Association v. IWC. (This is a configuration update. If you want to activate this upon your system, please contact the office.)

PhytoTrak build 144 This allows the selection of a primary OT rule when multiple rules apply in the same day. Blue Skies clients have the option to show minimum wage adjustments as a separate line item in reports and on the check stub. 

PhytoTrak build 141 This allows Famous clients to track I9 information in PhytoTrak. The import of employees from Famous does not overwrite the information entered in PhytoTrak.

PhytoTrak build 140 This removes restore points after a Year-End-Close, preventing erroneous or duplicated data in historical records.

PhytoTrak build 139 This corrects a problem when allocating equipment.

PhytoTrak build 138 This corrects a problem when submitting. No additional report updates.

PhytoTrak build 137 This corrects a problem when submitting. No additional report updates.

PhytoTrak build 136 This corrects a problem when modifying cost centers imported from  (SureHarvest). No additional report updates.

PhytoTrak build 135 This retains the Ranch assignments for allocations imported from external sources (SureHarvest). No additional report updates.

PhytoTrak build 134 This update corrects the Ranch acreage calculations. It also retains the Ranch assignments for allocations imported from external sources (SureHarvest). About 1/2 the reports have been updated to a new layout that several clients have approved in test runs. (Customized reports for specific clients will not be affected). The other 1/2 will be included in the next build.

PhytoTrak build 133 Allocation at submittal (from build 132) created an error that is corrected in this build. Still very important to download and run "Def Update.exe" from your 'C:\AgTrak\Update Defs' folder. 

PhytoTrak build 132 Small changes on Allocation at submittal & Employee rate import for Famous clients. Make sure you download and run "Def Update.exe" from your 'C:\AgTrak\Update Defs' folder. 

PhytoTrak build 130 Corrected "Pool" omission on "Return to base client".  Corrected "Piece Pool =-1" after Mass Edit.

PhytoTrak build 129 Options to retain Cost Center imports.  

PhytoTrak build 128 Corrected error in employee setup screen, Some options for Famous Block/Ranch/Crop imports. 

PhytoTrak build 127 Added "Peel by Crew" .option.

PhytoTrak build 126 Corrected form alignment in TSDE for View and Edit crew.

PhytoTrak build 125 Added Labor Comparisons to history reporting. Some minor changes in some export/import routines. Added interface for MAS90.

PhytoTrak build 124 Removed allocations from the 'Trial Payroll' calculations. This will allow you to reach Trial Payroll faster as you are processing during the week. The allocations will be applied only when you submit, so that process will run a little longer, but getting there will be much faster. I also made some changes in the actual allocations hoping to reduce the rounding on some reports. 

PhytoTrak build 123 Added new functionally to SureHarvest interface. Some new AutoWI/AutoWO options for day change.

PhytoTrak build 122 Corrected  runtime "DELETE * FROM TempList..."

PhytoTrak build 121 Added Datatech summed payroll export.
