  1. Dansoft’s DCMS Growers, Propagators, Breeders Precision Farming Large & Small Business Agro-Technical Field Trials, R&D Sales, Payroll, Accounts, more Powerful, Friendly, Open DCMS is a large software system, for many different types of businesses. This presentation is directed at medium to large farms, focused more on Agri Production. info@dansoft.net

  2. Technical Info • Stations can be Windows 95, 98, ME, NT or 2000 • Single user, Workgroup, Windows 2000 or Novel • Magic’s eDeveloper • Pervasive SQL2000i • Possible on Oracle, IBM, Unix, VAX, MS-SQL, Cache and more • Underlying powerful C-engine => “key-less” highly robust system • Millions of records on low-end servers • Simple to maintain • Lends itself to customizations • Automatic conversions upon software updates • Pre-designed for distributed companies, including multi-nationals • Powerful user rights info@dansoft.net

  3. Commercial Info • Fixed quotations => Clients seek optimal solutions, not safeguard budgets • Low per-user costs => comprehensive implementation (advantage to size) • Low-cost on-site full-time implementers • Complete customizations at affordable or no costs • Fixed annual fees for support and sub-version upgrades info@dansoft.net

  4. Dansoft • Long-runner, innovative, leading technology, client focused • Agro-business first installations - 1990 • Hundreds of clients, including leading flower producers • Dedicated staff, IT and agriculturists • Holland a key strategic market as of 2002 • Encouraging cooperation (multi-nationals, process control, DLV) Dansoft – focused on its clients info@dansoft.net

  5. User Friendly • Natural flow of work order, right from when setting the system • Everywhere, F1 pops up “local” specific help on the current screen • Tool-tips on rarely used parameters • Zoom to constants available throughout the system, <Enter> to select • DCMS is available in Dutch and other languages, even on same station • Setup guides through topics, some not considered before using DCMS • Setup embodies a wealth of knowledge, used daily by user and system • Data coding enables rapid manual data entry • Data automation automates data entry • Numerous data-input controls • A seamless tightly integrated system – learn one know them all • Creating reports is most simple while most powerful info@dansoft.net

  6. Interfaces • HQ auto-consolidation => ideal for a distributed companies • EDI in-between remote Dansoft sites on POP, Stores, SOP, Sales and JV’s • Any report easily read into spread sheet and other software • DCMS includes accounts. If required can integrate with external system. • DCMS includes payroll. If required can integrate with external system. • Swipe card readers (work-clocks) • Can read 3rd-party sales results info (also custom interfaces) • Can read process control info, e.g.– fertigation, (also custom interfaces) • DCMS WRS (Web Reports Server) enables powerful reports over the web info@dansoft.net

  7. DCMS Agri Production This glimpse into some agro-technical features is intended to raise interest to seek a live demonstration of DCMS. For details please contact Dansoft or its representatives. info@dansoft.net

  8. Constants Clicking Crops opens the Crops menu Also in Dutch info@dansoft.net

  9. Varieties For add-on web catalogue system A sample normal constants screen before looking at some more technical constants. info@dansoft.net

  10. Chemicals Crop cycle plans Harvest warnings Work safety Storage Stock Stock unit value Re-ordering info Chemicals analysis by commercial names or active ingredients info@dansoft.net

  11. Fertilizers Can be applied through the irrigation network or through other means. DCMS will combine fertigation records with material application records with field maps and other constants to provide comprehensive agro-technical, stock or costing analysis info@dansoft.net

  12. Targets Materials are usually chemicals but also hormones, biological warfare insects or organisms. Targets are what materials are applied for/against. For Botrytis a list of materials is applicable, for example material 4047 (Euparen W.P 50) at a nominal application rate of 2cc/lt. For various crops one may use different application rates. info@dansoft.net

  13. Water By entering water sample results, the system will combine water properties with fertilizer properties to provide precise chemical elements analysis down to single plant level. It is possible to manage different water sources by all professional and financial properties. info@dansoft.net

  14. Fields / Greenhouses These, are all parameters of this Field info@dansoft.net

  15. Rows Data automation allows rapid precise definition of crops by individual bed. Breeders and propagators can go down to single plant level. info@dansoft.net

  16. Greenhouse Map A sample rose greenhouse with a main path in the middle. Unlike a drawing from an engineering design software, DCMS draws maps from basic data records. While the maps are important in their own sake and for verification of base data records, all calculations are done by those base records – the secret factor allowing DCMS the phenomenally accurate analysis. info@dansoft.net

  17. Map options The ability to pinpoint specific plants by long-term and average behavior is key to selecting the better from the weaker. The R&D selection parameters are virtually limitless. Precision management requires numerous details. The system transforms that into useful managerial information, also through maps. info@dansoft.net

  18. Material Application Apply at 6am, free entrance 8am Enter only what’s important Greenhouses applied Down to bed level Targets & Materials Audit trail Plan & Execution info@dansoft.net

  19. MA 2 Managed at Row level Crop & Field area factors Zooming brings list of fields info@dansoft.net

  20. MA 3 Zooming to select materials and application rates Shows general-crop rates Zooming again brings the fertilizers master file Zooming to PH reduction shows it’s a deficiency info@dansoft.net

  21. MA 4 Stores Requisition Vouchers (SRV’s) can be raised automatically from planned MA Data automation features Data entry controls and auto-calculations based on constants The rich constants enable simple, quick and well-controlled daily entries MA is integrated with pest monitoring, fertigation, climate, yields, costs, stores, payroll, machinery, fuel control, labor and other areas of DCMS. All in a way almost transparent to the user, who feels nothing when entering data and running reports. info@dansoft.net

  22. MA 5 - Dutch DCMS is a true multi-lingual system, with various facilities even for the data itself While some titles may remain in English by omission, any title can be translated to any language or different term within same language. Only the internal help screens remain in English. It is possible to access the same database from an icon opening an English DCMS or an icon opening a Dutch DCMS. info@dansoft.net

  23. MA Reports Typing name Zoom to select report subject Setting dates Setting Parameters Values Execute Ranges info@dansoft.net

  24. Parameters Earliest harvest dates Column with crop names will have 12 characters Break-down per row No sub-totals Overhead break-downs info@dansoft.net

  25. Values Column with material quantity will have 9 characters With 5 decimal digits Analysis by net or gross area Easy import to spread sheets Percentage distribution of any value info@dansoft.net

  26. Ranges Filtering can be done on any combination of parameters, e.g. – on Blocks and Materials Filtering information is done naturally, without any system limitations. 100-999, n200-299 means everything from 100 to 999 but not 200-299. info@dansoft.net

  27. Report Beginning and end of report The requested report is of many columns and over 6 pages long. info@dansoft.net

  28. 2D Report With optional multiple break-downs Raises the 2D dialogue window and multiple values Clicking 2D info@dansoft.net

  29. 2D Report graphs are also available The result is a compact presentation Crops are in the Y (vertical) axis Disease Types in the X (horizontal) axis Total Cost is the value Note the identical totals info@dansoft.net

  30. Graphs – Bar 3D Fungal and Insects Diseases are most costly info@dansoft.net

  31. Graphs - Stack Total expense on Carnations info@dansoft.net
