Operations can define templates for grading and pricing of specific species and delivery conditions. The use of templates saves time when entering landing reports since the size/grade and price information is already filled in and the user only has to enter the weights. Grading and Pricing templates are defined for operations, but they are not managed on the Operations Management page. This is because the Operations Management page is only accessible to administrative users. Prices frequently need to be changed by non-administrative users, so these functions are available to all users.

Making a new Template

To add a new template, enter the species in the species box at the bottom of the species column, and the delivery condition in the condition box at the bottom of the condition column. Then click the New Template button.
The system will display the Grading and Pricing Template Maintenance page for the entered species and condition. You will have to enter at least one grading and pricing line for the new template before you can save.
There are two checkboxes that control how the templates for the species and condition are used. :
Show Price
The show price checkbox controls whether or not the price will be filled when the templates are used to populate grading and pricing lines on landing reports. If the show price checkbox is check, the price will be filled in. If the checkbox is unchecked, the size/grade information will be filled in but the price will be left blank. This is useful when prices are not being supplied to the fishermen at the time of delivery, or when you don't want the prices on the fish tickets. The size/grade information can still be filled in from the template, but the price is ignored.

If you want to get rid of a size/grade just blank out the data in each field for that line. However, you cannot get rid of all of the lines. If you don't need a template for a species and delivery condition anymore, just check the disabled checkbox and save.
