What information is included in a task?

  • Updated

1. Task type - each task has an assigned type. You can choose from the following:

  • Work orders
    Soil preparation
    Seed treatment
    Seeding / planting
    Spreading / fertilization
    Spraying / application
    Harvesting
    Irrigation
    Other

  • Field Activities
    Sampling
    Field visit
    Trial
    Field report
    Other

2. Field - each task is connected with one field. You can’t create a task without defining a field.

3. Date - each task has a defined deadline - either one day (displayed as TO DO ON) or the date range (displayed as TO DO BETWEEN). Tasks can have only upcoming deadlines. After you mark a task as done, the completion date is displayed. If the task is completed after the deadline, you will see the DUE badge. 

4. Priority - defining the task priority is optional. By setting priority status, you can mark which of the tasks require immediate attention. You can choose from the following:

  • High
  • Medium
  • Low

5. Assign person - you can assign people with whom you share a farm or field(s) to your tasks.

  • Assigning tasks helps to improve the workflow and solves the problem of calling or sending messages to farm workers without the details and context.
  • It ensures giving the precise location where the task should be performed (you can add pins or areas to the tasks, with the exact latitude and longitude)
  • It enables communication in comments. If a problem on a field makes it impossible to complete a task, your farm workers can immediately let you know in the comments!


6. Description - adding text to a task is obligatory. It has to be at least 3 characters long.

7. Pin or area - in SKYFLD, you can precisely mark the spot or area on the map to show the exact place where the work order or field activity should be completed.

  • Using the pin, you can add a point to the map showing the exact latitude and longitude, making it easy to find that spot on the field.

  • If you decide on adding the area, the SKYFLD APP will display its size in hectares and coordinates of the marked area’s central point.

8. Attachments - optionally, you can upload attachments from your smartphone, for example, PDF files. 

9. Gallery - you can upload photos from your phone gallery. 

10. Camera - you can open the camera and take new photos that will be saved within a task.
