# Creating Workplans in JD Ops Center

## Creating a work plan helps set up SWAT MAPS VR prescription files in advance, typically by farm staff. This reduces operator errors in prescription selection and rate adjustments, and also minimizes time spent at the field entrance.

***Please note***: A prescription can only be used once! If you have a field broken up into multiple parts in JD Ops, but we have made a single prescription through SWAT RECORDS, it will not work for the separated chunks. Let your agronomist know before hand and we will export multiple prescriptions for that field, OR; You will have to merge your JD Ops boundaries into one.

Required:

- Fields set up in JD Operations Center
- JD Link
- Generation 4 or newer display

Selecting Out of Bounds rates Tips

1. When setting up a workplan for a field in Ops center, you must select the prescription for the product.
2. After the prescription is loaded, click on the prescription rate set up link just under the prescription file.
3. Inside the Prescription rate set up editor, there is a button for "Out of Zone Rate".
4. By default, seems to select “Keep Machine Setting”, uncheck this to enter a custom out of bounds rate. This must be done for ALL products with prescriptions. 
     - OR there is a check box for “No GPS Rate” which defaults to “Maintain Previous Rate”. **We recommend setting up the out of bounds rates to reduce the chance of an error.**
