Creating Expert Mode (EM)
We have two options for creating EM`s: manually and automatically.
1. Manually
In this case, we have to enter the name of EM to Codebooks for Item. The name of EM is usually the same as the name of the Product.
When creating new EM it is important that on Item are already set following:
- ID
- Name
- Primary Category (Primary category points within which module (CROP, FRUI&NUTS, GRAPES, GRASS) expert model will be seen)
- Secondary Category
- Item type
- VAT
- Primary U/M
 |
Expert model is always for an Item.
a) In order to create new EM, new Item should be added
b) EM could be determined for agriculture species (BARLEY, CORN, ..) or agriculture variety (BARLEY "REX", CORN "FANTASTIC", ..) or additional agriculture variety clones or hybrids (CORN "FANTASTIC var. 145"). The level of expert model specification is an individual farmer decision due to his evaluation how specified further analysis he needs. Naming of EM is also individual decision. A proposal is that the Name of EM indicates last naming within plant hierarchy: Species - variety- clones which are important for producers.

When all important data for the Item are defined, creation of an EM can start by adding particular Item.
When we create EM manually we have to enter all data manually or we can use button Wizard 
and create new EM by copying EM from other Product. How it works, we can read in user manual for Navigator.

For each expert model version a state could be determined: a default state is A-Active, in case you select C-Closed this expert model version wont be seen in drop-downs for selection of EM ( within Plan and Work order from).
2. Automatically through importing EM`s
In program we have also functionality than allow us to import EM`s into the database. The function is in Administration panel - Settings - Farming - Agronomy - Expert model. In this case EM`s in module Expert Models are created automatically.
Red colored expert model version are expert models version which were imported through Web service (Administration panel - Settings/Program parameter - Farming - Agronomy - Expert models - Expert models (tab). Red colored expert model version is always 0 version and locked for editing. All task and resources which are determined within expert model imported through web service are displayed. By clicking on Copy button a copy of red colored expert models version display as a version 1. Version 1 could be changed and adjust according to individual requirements
Then we have also option tu copy and duplicate the versions of expert models. How it works, we can read in user manual for Navigator
