How do I move my farm accounts from a notebook to my phone without being a tech expert?

With Owari Agro you move your notebook to your phone one record at a time, with short forms: a setup guide walks you through step by step, the task form suggests the values it already knows and the Owari Assistant lets you ask for things in your own words. No tech skills needed.

Start with what you already have written down

The first time you sign in, the side menu turns into a guide, «Initial setup», with six steps and a progress bar:

1. Create plots
2. Create employees
3. Create customers
4. Create suppliers
5. Create products
6. Farm details

Each step takes you to the screen where it's done, and moves on when you save. You can leave with «Exit tour»; while anything is pending, the menu shows «Setup progress» with a «Go» button to the next step.

Start with today's plots and workers; the old history can stay in the notebook.

Record the day without typing the same thing twice

• In Farm details you set the daily wage and the price per kilo, and the task form suggests them. We explain it in how to set up the day wage, the kilo price and meals.
• Record task > «Individual» repeats the date, plot, task and work type of your last record.
• Record task > «Group» records the same day-wage task for several workers at once.
• Pay slips and cash advances go in Advances, with the employee, amount and date, and they are suggested as deductions when you settle with that worker. See how to deduct advances.

On your phone, even without signal

Owari Agro opens in your phone's browser and can be installed on the home screen: on Android, with the «Install» button; on iPhone, from Share > «Add to Home Screen». After you sign in once with internet, offline mode (a mirror copy of your data stored on the device, the «mirror table») lets you record in the field without signal, and everything uploads by itself when the connection comes back. More in how it works offline.

If you'd rather just ask for it

The Owari Assistant, a built-in artificial intelligence agent, appears as a bubble inside the app. You type or talk to it: «add an employee», «record an advance» or «how much do I owe each worker?». Before saving, it tells you what it's going to record and asks you to confirm. It needs internet. See how to use it with no technical experience.

What it doesn't do

It doesn't import your accounts from Excel or read photos of your notebook: data is entered one record at a time. The Seed plan includes tasks and advances; sales, and purchases and expenses, are available from the Harvest plan up.
