Convert Prescriptions to Jobs (Work Orders/Recommendations)
Overview
You can turn one or more approved prescriptions into:
Work Orders (for execution), or
Recommendations (for advisory/approval flows)
During conversion you’ll assign an operator, choose machines/assets, set due dates, and control whether multiple prescriptions become one multi-bin job or separate jobs.
Prerequisites
Inputs set: For imported prescriptions, use Set or Change Input to link an Agworld product and (optionally) set pricing.
Approved status: Only approved prescriptions can be converted. (Express RX prescriptions can be approved immediately; imported ones require inputs first.)
Access: You have permission to assign operators/assets and create jobs.
Step-by-Step: Convert Prescriptions to Jobs
Open Prescriptions
Go to Workflow Prescriptions.
Filter to Approved (optional) and select the prescription(s) you want to convert.
Choose Conversion Type
Click Convert.
Pick Convert to Work Order or Convert to Recommendation based on your workflow.
Decide on Single vs Multi-Bin
Create Multi-Bin Job: merges all selected prescriptions into one job (multiple bins/products).
Not selected: each prescription becomes its own job.
Tip: Use multi-bin to reduce paperwork and coordinate one pass across multiple products.
Assign Responsibility
Operator company and/or operator user (can include connected third-party providers if enabled).
Confirm they have access; connected partners can log in to see the job.
Select Assets/Machines
Choose the machine(s)/implement(s) that will run the job.
This helps ensure correct minimums/maximums in the field controller later.
Set Scheduling & Details
Due date (and optional start window/notes if available in your account).
Verify rates, zones, and parameters (they carry across from the prescription).
Add instructions or safety notes for operators.
Files & Delivery Options
The prescription file attaches automatically to the job.
Choose how operators will access controller/shapefiles:
Download from the job (web or mobile),
Or send to connected platforms (e.g., John Deere, Slingshot) if enabled.
Confirm file format/controller compatibility if your fleet mixes displays.
Create the Job
Click Create / Confirm.
Status of the prescription(s) updates to Converted.
A link to the new job appears—open it to review details.
Verify Operator Access
On iPad/phone apps, operators can open the job, see attached files, and download to the display (USB-C/Lightning workflows supported).
If the grower has access, they can view the job on web or mobile.
Track & Manage
Converted jobs appear in Workflow and Planning/Farm Planning.
They contribute to nutrient management plans and product usage totals.
Use job status to monitor progress and completion.

Troubleshooting
Convert button disabled? Ensure inputs are set (for imports) and the prescription is Approved.
Missing files on the job? Reopen the job and verify the prescription attachment; re-attach if needed.

Multiple jobs created by accident? Use Create Multi-Bin Job next time to merge selected prescriptions into a single work order.
