Getting started in 30 minutes
This is the fastest path from a fresh organization to entering real farm figures on a phone. Work top to bottom; each step builds on the one before it.
The setup path
- Confirm your organization. Sign in and check the org profile at
/settings. Your subdomain is fixed once created, so confirm it is right. - Build your locations. Add sites at
/locations/sites, then poultry houses at/locations/houses. Every flock or egg set belongs to a house, so locations come first. - Invite the team. Add people at
/settings/membersand give each person the narrowest role that lets them do their job. You can widen a role later. - Add your first flock or egg set. Go to
/lots/newand choose Place a Lot. PoultryDesk uses Lot as the common name for a broiler flock, layer flock, or hatchery egg set. - Enter a day of figures. From a phone, record mortality, feed, and (for layers) eggs. The entry saves even without a signal; a queued badge shows until it syncs.
- Record the money. When you are ready, record a sale and an expense under
/finance.
Watch out
Daily entry works with no signal - a submission is saved on the device and syncs automatically when you are back online. You do not need to wait for a connection to record farm figures.
