11. Synchronize a Field with John Deere Operations Center

Push one field to John Deere Operations Center on demand and keep its boundary and hierarchy up to date.

GeoPard lets you synchronize a single field with John Deere Operations Center on demand.

Use it right after adding a field. Use it again after changing the boundary or updating the client and farm hierarchy.

GeoPard decides automatically whether to create the field in John Deere Operations Center or re-sync an existing one. You do not need to check its current state first.

The Synchronize field with John Deere Operations Center action is visible only when your GeoPard account is connected to John Deere. If you do not see it, complete Connect to John Deere Operations Center.

Before you start

Synchronization depends on two setup steps. If either one is missing, the sync will fail.

1. Map GeoPard labels to the John Deere hierarchy

GeoPard organizes fields with labels. John Deere uses an Organization → Client → Farm hierarchy.

On the John Deere integration page, map your GeoPard labels to these John Deere levels:

• organization → Organization

• client → Client

• farm → Farm

If a matching label does not exist yet, create it first. See Add a label.

2. Add matching labels to the field

Open the field and check Field Details → Labels.

The field must contain the values that match your mapping. For example:

• organization: AgriCore Solutions

• client: GreenField

• farm: Green Valley Farm

These values place the field in the correct Organization → Client → Farm path in John Deere Operations Center.

Synchronize a field

1. Open the field you want to send to John Deere Operations Center.

2. Click Export → Synchronize field with John Deere Operations Center.

3. Wait for the result notification.

What happens when you click

GeoPard checks whether the field is already linked to John Deere Operations Center.

• If the field does not already exist in John Deere Operations Center, GeoPard creates it automatically based on the field's farm and client labels.

• If the field already exists in John Deere Operations Center, GeoPard updates its boundary, farm, and client information automatically during synchronization.

Results you will see

After the action runs, GeoPard shows one of these notifications:

• Field created in John Deere Operations Center — the field had no John Deere link and was created successfully.

• Field re-synced with John Deere Operations Center — the field was already linked and its boundary and hierarchy were updated.

• Synchronization failed — the field could not be synchronized.

Troubleshooting

If synchronization fails, check these items first:

• Your GeoPard account is connected to John Deere. See 2. Connect to John Deere Operations Center.

• Your John Deere organization is enabled in GeoPard. See 3. Connect to John Deere Organizations.

• The field has all mapped labels, with the correct values.

• The label mapping matches the intended Organization → Client → Farm path.

The most common failure cause is missing or mismatched field labels.
