Unlocking Insights: The Power of the Reports Page
In the dynamic world of farm management and fresh produce logistics, data isn’t just helpful—it’s essential. That’s why Pack Shed Solutions offers a comprehensive Reports page designed to give farmers, packers, and managers the clarity they need to make smarter decisions, improve transparency, and streamline compliance. Below, we explore the six key report types that bring this power to life.
📊 Average Returns Report
The Average Returns report gives you a clear view of financial performance across different crops, destinations, and agents. It shows the best, worst, and median prices paid for your produce and can be grouped by a wide range of variables, including product type and destination.
You can drill into freight costs (known and unknown), returns per carton, returns per kilo, and dispatch quantities. This enables quick comparison across markets, helping you identify which buyers offer the best returns and which routes cost the most to service.
🧮 Production Report
This report graphically represents production volumes based on filters like crop type, variety, and date range. It allows users to visualize output trends and seasonal performance, helping with labour planning, crop forecasting, and post-season analysis.
⚠️ Incident Report
Incident tracking is crucial for operational safety and quality control. The Incidents report compiles all logged incidents within a specified time frame, showing detailed descriptions, affected staff, and categorization. This fosters accountability, safety improvements, and audit readiness.
📦 Grower Pallets Report
Need to see exactly what a grower has packed over a period? The Grower Pallets report details pallet contents for each grower by date, including agent and variety filtering. It’s ideal for both internal review and transparency with your growers.
🚛 Grower Distribution Report
While the Pallets report focuses on what was packed, the Grower Distribution report shows where that fruit went. It lists the total quantity (trays, boxes, etc.) sent on behalf of a grower within a given timeframe, broken down by destination. It’s a must-have for reconciling logistics and maintaining supply chain visibility.
🧬 Traceability Report
Last but not least, the Traceability report provides full chain-of-custody visibility for each box of produce. If you need to trace back from a customer complaint or a food safety query, this report tells you exactly when and where a box was packed, what block it came from, and where it was sent.
Summary
The Reports page in Pack Shed Solutions isn’t just a feature—it’s a toolkit for confident, informed decision-making. From evaluating returns to tracing product origins and tracking incidents, these reports serve growers, packers, and distributors alike with actionable insights, operational clarity, and accountability.
Whether you’re answering a food safety audit, planning next season’s crop, or simply trying to get the best price for your fruit, the right report is only a click away.
