Being part of North America’s fresh produce sector is – put simply – a balancing act. Businesses have their hands full trying to navigate the unpredictability of weather, supply chain and logistics issues, ongoing trade and tariff uncertainty, rising costs, and more…

December 2025 Updates and Enhancements in PICS:
- Added a new Accounting/Create Posted Deposit system control. If set to Y, when an AR Receipt is saved, PICS will automatically create a Deposit for that receipt and set that Deposit’s status to Posted. Note that when this happens, the Deposit screen will not open. You can tell it was done because the Deposit # field on the receipt will be filled. This would be very useful if the payments you receive go into the bank individually (electronic payments is one example).
- Added a new Accounting/Auto-Fill Deposit Amount System Control. If set to Y, when adding a receipt, if a customer is chosen and there is only one un-paid item for them, PICS will automatically fill the Amount field for the entire receipt and for the row in the grid with that amount, so all you need to do is put in the description and save.
- Changed the Description field on the AR Receipts screen so it can be left blank when tabbing through the screen. It is still a required field, but it will only be checked when the Receipt is saved.
- Added Actual Arrival Date and Time fields to Sales Order Shipping Header.
From field to warehouse to customer, every business in the fresh produce supply chain faces the same challenge: keep everything moving — accurately, efficiently, and profitably.
