The migration process from Gatekeeper Desktop to Gatekeeper Cloud will transfer the entire business structure (Grower – Holding – Farm – Field) for the last 5 years as well as transfer any soil sampling inspections that have been carried out during that period.
It will not currently migrate operational job records or intensive cropping customers who have field plots enabled.
Optional: if you have custom crop names these can be turned into Field Tags.
