Calendar & Tasks: 6 capabilities

01

Task Management

Create, delegate, and track task progress. Set priority levels and deadlines, and assign tasks to individual employees or teams. Employees take over tasks marked "Self-assignable" themselves – for team tasks, the members of the team – and hand them back when needed. From the notice that a stock has fallen below its minimum (storage, spare part, medication), one click opens a new task with the title and description already filled in.

02

Calendar

A central schedule for breeding cycles, harvest windows, maintenance appointments and tasks, in the Premium plan also for contractor jobs (can be switched off per job). Each person sees the event types their role makes available, and at a glance what is coming up. Add your own calendar entries with custom visibility (personal, team, or farm-wide) and recurring series (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly), and import appointments as an .ics file from Outlook, Google or Apple. Simple series arrive with their rhythm, interval and end date; weekday rules, a fixed number of repetitions and exception dates are not carried over by the import.

03

Notifications in the App and as Push (PWA)

Whoever is assigned a new task – personally or through their team – receives a notification in the app; later changes do not trigger a notification of their own. These same in-app notifications mirror straight to your phone or desktop as Web Push messages – task assignments, deadline reminders and alerts reach you even when FarmManager is closed. Enabling is always your choice — a one-tap opt-in prompt during onboarding or a dismissible banner you can snooze, never an automatic subscription. Each device manages its own subscription and works across Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari.

04

Reminder Emails for Deadlines and Backlogs

Beyond the in-app bell, FarmManager emails the right people about due and overdue items – maintenance due dates, expiring soil samples, statutory deadlines, the census report to HI-Tier (with an existing HI-Tier connection), antibiotic (TAM) reports, manure transports and more. Instead of many single emails, FarmManager bundles them into one summary — grouped by farm and by area, each entry with its deadline and a direct link into the app. Every email is localized to the recipient's language and lists exactly which records need attention; recipients are filtered by role, so people only get reminders for the modules they actually work with. How they arrive is each person's own call, set in their profile — bundled as a summary (the default), immediately on every occasion, or not at all. The setting governs email only; the in-app notifications stay untouched, so "no emails" never makes anything disappear, and calendar reminders you arranged yourself keep arriving at their own time.

05

Open deadlines and backlog at a glance

A table on the dashboard bundles what the scheduled checks last found for your farm — per area the number of open items, the next deadline, how many of them are overdue and when it was last checked. Overdue items sit on top, and every row leads straight into the module concerned. What you see is the state of the last scheduled run, and each row only appears for the roles responsible for that area.

06

Templates — set up once, reuse anywhere

Save recurring entries as a named template and apply it to new forms with one click. Every template is either private ("Only me") or shared with the whole farm; save a completed form with "Save as template". Regulated or calculated fields are deliberately never stored in it.
