How to find the Fruit Lot Explorer

Once you've created your Fruit Lots, you can find them in your Fruit Lot Explorer.

Access the Fruit Lot Explorer with GROW

Users with GROW will find the Fruit Lot Explorer in the Vineyard slideover menu, on the Vineyard Dashboard, and as a second tab next to the Vineyard Explorer.

Access the Fruit Lot Explorer via the Vineyard Explorer

All users can find the Fruit Lot Explorer in your Vineyards tab > Vineyard Explorer.

At the top under the title bar, next to the Vineyard Explorer tab, you will see your Fruit Lot Explorer tab.

Using the Fruit Lot Explorer

The Fruit Lot Explorer shows all active fruit lots whether they currently have contents or not. Archived fruit lots are automatically hidden. Update the archived filter to see archived lots. 

The default view is set for the current calendar year vintage - if you don't see the lots you are looking for, try checking or clearing the Vintage filter first. 

The Fruit Lot Explorer allows filtering by Lot code, vintage, varietal, vineyard, block (after vineyard is specified), appellation, tag (lot), bond, Archived status, etc. This explorer is also exportable.

To find your weight tags associated with fruit lots, visit the Fruit Intake Report via the Vineyards Dashboard or the Report Explorer. Learn more about that report here. 

FAQ

 Q. I can't find my fruit lot.

A. The two most common ways to find a fruit lot involving checking the default filters:

1) Check the vintage filter. It always defaults to the current calendar year's vintage - if you are looking for a fruit lot from a different calendar year (such as looking for a 2024 fruit lot when it is January 2025), make sure to clear or reset the filter!

2) Check to see if the lot is archived. If you may have already processed the fruit lot (submitted a Process to Volume or Weight action involving the lot), be sure to include archived fruit lots. Fruit lots may have been auto-archived when they were emptied.

Q. I have weight remaining after harvest. How do I remove it? 

A. If there is still weight populating your Fruit Lot Explorer that should not be there, we recommend either recording a Fruit Weight Adjustment to reduce extra weight (if this is extra unprocessed weight) or by deleting the Receive Fruit action (if the fruit was recorded in duplicate or error). Be sure to add any necessary notes. Be mindful that both of these actions do have implications for your TTB report so please have a look at this section of our Troubleshooting the TTB article, which discusses Part IV  "Summary of Materials Received and Used."
