An enterprise administrator can view how much FarmQA was used by individuals in their account throughout the course of a season via the usage dashboard. This includes things like seeing how many total reports and recommendations were generated, which fields were checked most frequently and who submitted the reports for them. A primary use of such a report is for consultants offering scouting as a service, this provides a snapshot view of what was done for a client. For further details on how to utilize the Usage Dashboard can be found below.
Navigation
- Log in to our FarmQA account from the web app as an enterprise administrator.
- NOTE: Only enterprise administrators have access to the usage dashboard.
- Click on the Settings icon on the left-hand side of the screen, then make sure you are in the Usage tab (see below).
- From this screen the following navigation can be used depending on what you want to see (pictured below):
- Organization: Filter the data you're seeing by organization using the organizational tree on the left. This allows you to view data for an individual grower or agronomist.
- Data source: Choose to either see metrics related to Scouting reports or Advice/recommendations.
- Time range: Use the dropdown menu in the upper right-hand corner of the screen to set the time range you want to view data over (ex: Today, Last 7 days, Last 30 days).
Viewing Scouting Summary Data
Selecting the Scouting tab in the middle section will provide you access to the insights related to your collected scouting data. Descriptions of what each metric represents are presented below. All reported metrics are compiled from reports submitted over the time period set in the time range dropdown menu.
-
- Total reports: the total number of reports submitted.
- Observations: the total number of observation points submitted in scouting reports. This number is greater than total reports because more than one observation might have been made per report.
- Attachments: the total number of pictures and map drawings submitted with scouting reports.
- Days scouted: The total number of days in which at least one scouting report was submitted.
- Fields scouted: The total number of fields that had at least one scouting report submitted for it.
- Scouted area (ac): The sum total of acres scouted. This calculation is performed by summing up the acreage of all fields that had at least one scouting report associated with it.
