FAQ’s
the combine?
This is due to how JDOffice counts acres according to the options set on the Processing
Preferences tab, and/or your driving practices. To get your acreage numbers to match,
follow the directions in “Unload Yield Options” on page 38.
What is the difference between the two types of boundaries?
Crop boundaries outline the crop and field boundaries outline the entire field. Both are
considered a field layer, but only field boundaries can print on farm maps. Crop
boundaries are used as outlines for yield and moisture contour maps; field boundaries are
used as outlines for application plans and soil type maps.
I accidentally pressed the wrong field name in the combine display. Can I move that
field- or parts of it - into a different field?
Yes. In the Unload PC Card window, uncheck the option to Unload all data files for the
selected field and type. Unload one data file at a time and rename the field in the Edit
Data Files window. Use the Preview button to verify you are selecting the right data files
to reassign to the correct field. Review Chapter 6 for details.
I unloaded field data into the wrong farm. How can I move it to another farm?
Under Data>Delete Field Data delete the field from the wrong farm. Then re-unload the
data and put it in the correct farm.
When I try to print I receive an Illegal Operation Error and have to close JDOffice.
Why and how can I fix this?
There is an option in Preferences that forces some printers to reset each time you exit the
program. If you are experiencing errors, select File>Preferences and click the Printer
tab. Uncheck Save Windows printer setting on exit.
I am done with the field, but the bushels per acre are off from what my scale tickets
show. What can I do?
You can calibrate the data in the entire field. In the Layers chooser, select Edit for the yield
point layer. Select Tools>Field>Combine Calibration>by field totals. In the Calibration
window, enter the weight that appears on your scale ticket. JDOffice will adjust the bushels
per acre to match.
How do I change the crop in my field?
The crop needs to be changed as the PC Card is unloaded. In the Data to Edit list, select
Crop. The screen below will change to list the crop selected on the GreenStar Display.
Select the correct crop from the Crop drop-down box. Because the variety listed in the
Data to Edit box corresponds to the original crop, you will now have invalid entries - you
need to select the correct variety for the new crop.
