These options are only available if you have activated the Advanced Receive Fruit option. Click here for more information on how to activate this option.

Before Harvest each year you'll want to review your Weigh Tag settings. Only account Admins have access to weigh tag settings in InnoVint.

Weighing location

This will populate automatically if you have a single weighing location, and will be a dropdown menu if you have multiple weighing locations. The first weigh tag number, Weighmaster and Weighing address are specific to the selected location.

First weigh tag number

The first weigh tag number shows the very first weigh tag number that is set for a specific weigh location. All subsequent weigh tags generated in InnoVint will follow in sequential order. Each weigh tag sequence is specific to the selected weighing location. 

The first weigh tag number must be greater than all previous weigh tag numbers generated by InnoVint. If you are just getting started with weigh tags, please reach out to support@innovint.us to set your first number. 

According to guidance from the CDFA (California Department of Food & Ag - Division of Measurements), weigh tag numbers need to be sequential year over year. We no longer recommend including vintage in the weigh tag number when starting out and recommend continuing from where you left off last year.

If you have additional questions or need to update this number for a unique situation, please reach out to us at support@innovint.us.

If you are in a state outside of California, we recommend checking with your local state regulator regarding your specific requirements.

Weighmaster & Weighing address

Weighmaster information is saved as text to populate your weigh tags. You can update and edit this information at any time. This information is specific to the selected weighing location.

For California wineries, the Weighmaster field should be the Weighmaster license business name that is directly tied to the weighing location. This should not be an individual person - the individual weighing the fruit is referred to as the Deputy Weighmaster. 

Deputy Weighmasters

You can add or archive the names of your Deputy Weighmasters at any time. When completing a Receive Fruit action or task, you will select a Deputy weighmaster from a dropdown list. Archived Deputies will not appear in your dropdown list in an action or task. 

Deputy Weighmasters are "global," and shared for all Weighing Locations.  

To remove a deputy weighmaster from your account, please contact us at support@innovint.us.

Tare containers

Click on Editing Weigh Tag settings-add button to create new weighing containers. This will allow you to select your weighing containers from a dropdown list for each weighing group recorded in a Receive Fruit action or task. Saved tares are "global," and shared for all Weighing Locations.  

Did you know? In California, all wineries that utilize bins and use an “average” tare weight for that group of bins, should themselves (or whomever owns the bins) submit a Common Tare Notice.

Weigh tags - common tare

What this entails is having the bin owner take their bins to a Deputy Weighmaster and getting their bins weighed for a true average. They then create a Code designation, enter the average weight and submit the average weight to the California Department of Food & Ag as part of the Common Tare Notice.

This Code designation should be shared with wineries that use the bins and entered by our users when adding Tare containers. 

If you are in a state outside of California, we recommend checking with your local state regulator regarding your specific requirements.

Tip: If you weigh multiple containers at once (e.g. you weigh 2 MacroBins at a time), you can enter a container name to indicate how many bins you typically weigh per weighing group, the individual weight of each MacroBin, and set the default number of containers to the number of bins (e.g. 2). InnoVint will calculate the default total tare of your containers.
