As an example:
Agricultural activity 1 (soil preparation), Lot 100, cost $ 50
Agricultural activity 1 (soil preparation), Lot 101, cost $ 30
Agricultural activity 1 (soil preparation), Lot 102, cost $ 80
Agricultural Activity 2 (pruning), Lot 100, cost $ 30
Agricultural Activity 2 (pruning), Lot 101, cost $ 20
Agricultural Activity 2 (pruning), Lot 102, cost $ 50
Agricultural Activity 3 (harvest), Lot 100, cost $ 70
Agricultural Activity 3 (harvest), Lot 101, cost $ 45
Agricultural Activity 3 (harvest), Lot 102, cost $ 110
Agricultural activity 3 (harvest) reports grapes to inventory.
Grape Lot 100, cost $ 150 ($ 50 + $ 30 + $ 70)
Grape Lot 101, cost $ 95 ($ 30 + $ 20 + $ 45)
Grape Lot 102, cost $ 240 ($ 80 + $ 50 + $ 110)
Then the grapes are used in wine production, every grape batch has already included agricultural costs.
Our Vertical solution mentioned in my previous post, have the option of creating all agricultural activities you perform for example from soil preparation to harvest (as many activities as needed), each activity is automatically distributed for each parcel of land (lot or block) and that generates in turn a planned production order in master planning this module will help you manage the dates and amounts of these orders, when you firm up them generates production orders that allows you to report materials and time used and these costs are accumulated in an account related to each parcel of land, so at the end of all activities all the costs that relate to that particular piece of land are accumulated
The last activity reports harvested grapes, they become part of the inventory and thereafter we used the production module to generate production orders of wine where the grape is a raw material and they already has allocated agricultural costs of past activities. So the wine produced will have agricultural cost of grapes + other raw materials and packaging materials.
