The ERP Solution for the Year” 2025 in Agtech Breakthrough Awards 2025
Implementing Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and AgriERP to centralize farm accounting, inventory, procurement, harvest tracking, inspections, work orders, project costing, and mobile field execution for a growing US farm operation.
EnH Farms is a diversified agricultural enterprise based in Kansas, United States. Founded by Eric and Heather Purvis in 1995, the company has grown into a modern farming operation focused on sustainable growth, operational efficiency, and technology-driven agriculture.
The organization manages a range of crop production activities, including corn, soybeans, wheat, seed wheat, and pinto beans. As EnH Farms expanded across multiple entities, crop cycles, harvest activities, inventory movements, and financial processes, its operational complexity increased significantly.
Before the AgriERP implementation, teams relied heavily on spreadsheets, manual data entry, disconnected systems, and fragmented reporting methods. These limitations made it difficult to connect field execution with inventory, accounting, project costing, harvest tracking, procurement, and management reporting.
To support continued growth, EnH Farms needed an enterprise-grade ERP ecosystem that could connect agricultural operations with financial management while enabling mobile execution for teams working directly in the field. Folio3 implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with AgriERP Web and Mobile platforms to create that connected foundation.

EnH Farms had outgrown spreadsheet-driven processes. Finance, inventory, harvest operations, work orders, inspections, sales contracts, and field activities were managed across disconnected systems and manual workflows, creating visibility gaps and delayed decision-making.
The business needed a centralized ERP ecosystem to unify financial management, inventory traceability, procurement, project accounting, harvest operations, inspections, work orders, and mobile field execution across its farm operations.
AgriERP implemented Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central integrated with AgriERP Web and Mobile applications, creating a scalable farm ERP platform for finance, operations, inventory, field execution, reporting, and future innovation.
As EnH Farms scaled, operational and financial teams needed more than disconnected spreadsheets and manual coordination. The organization required a structured ERP foundation that could support real-time visibility, controlled processes, and better collaboration between farm teams, operational managers, finance departments, and leadership.
Folio3 implemented a comprehensive AgriERP ecosystem powered by Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central. The solution was designed to unify finance, procurement, inventory, project accounting, harvest operations, inspections, work orders, and mobile field execution within one connected digital platform.
Business Central served as the core ERP foundation, while AgriERP Web and Mobile applications extended the platform into agriculture-specific operational workflows. This allowed EnH Farms to capture activity where it happens, connect that data with accounting and inventory processes, and provide management with faster visibility into operational performance.
The implementation focused on digitizing farm execution at the source. Field teams could record updates through mobile tools, while office and finance teams could work from centralized ERP data. This reduced dependency on informal communication, spreadsheets, and delayed manual reconciliation.
The implemented solution combined enterprise ERP capabilities with agriculture-specific workflows. Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central modernized financial and operational management, while AgriERP enabled crop planning, field execution, harvest management, inspection tracking, resource allocation, and project costing.
Centralized accounting through Business Central, including general ledger management, chart of accounts restructuring, and consistent financial reporting across the organization.
Streamlined AP and AR workflows with automated vendor payment processing, customer reconciliation, and improved transaction tracking across business cycles.
Connected banking workflows with reconciliation processes that improved cash visibility, payment accuracy, and financial control.
Structured tracking of fixed assets including acquisition, depreciation, and lifecycle management within the Business Central environment.
End-to-end inventory traceability covering item master control, lot tracking, warehouse operations, and inventory adjustment processes.
Standardized purchasing processes from requisition to vendor management, giving EnH Farms tighter control over procurement activity and spend.
Marketing sales contracts, blanket sales order customizations, shipment assignments, and proof-of-delivery tracking — supporting the full sales-to-delivery cycle.
Multi-entity accounting workflows enabling consolidated reporting and consistent financial operations across related business units.
Resource tracking, project costing, planning lines, and task templates that brought operational cost visibility to farm projects and field activities.
The platform helped improve grower-related payment processes by centralizing information and reducing scattered tracking.
Field-ready mobile application for iOS and Android with offline data capture, geo-location tagging, harvest tickets, inspection workflows, and synchronized updates — deployed first via Firebase and TestFlight before public release.
Power BI reporting integration delivering real-time visibility across finance, inventory, and farm operations — built on a scalable ERP foundation ready for AI, IoT, equipment telemetry, irrigation automation, and grower portals.
A major success factor of the EnH Farms implementation was the design of custom agricultural workflows that matched the organization’s operating model. These enhancements reduced manual effort, improved process consistency, and helped connect farm execution with ERP data.
One significant enhancement involved the Task Template ID functionality on the Project Card. Previously, users manually selected task lines associated with task templates. The new enhancement automated task line and planning line imports immediately after selecting a task template.
This enabled faster project creation, reduced manual effort, improved planning consistency, automated task synchronization, and simplified operational execution.
Another major enhancement involved the Sync to Farm App bulk update functionality. Users could select multiple projects simultaneously and update their Agri Status to Sync to Farm App through a single action button.
This improved bulk synchronization management, user productivity, mobile data availability, and operational efficiency for field teams using the farm app.
EnH Farms gained tighter control over commercial and field workflows through marketing sales contract management, automated shipment assignments, and customized blanket sales orders tailored to their operating model. Harvest quantity posting and configurable inspection templates with defined attributes brought structure to field data capture, while proof-of-delivery integration and reconciliation and true-up workflows closed the loop between dispatch, delivery, and customer settlement. Adhoc work order processing added the flexibility needed to handle unplanned farm activities without disrupting the broader operational cadence.
AgriERP followed a phased implementation methodology to minimize disruption, align stakeholders, and support user adoption. The approach moved from discovery and design to configuration, customization, migration, testing, go-live, and post-go-live support.
The EnH Farms implementation included structured User Acceptance Testing and release management. Production Release 1.1 introduced enhancements across Business Central and AgriERP Mobile, including planning line update logic, synchronization improvements, and mobile deployment support for both iOS and Android environments.
Testing covered functional validation, end-to-end workflows, mobile application behavior, integration flows, financial posting, inventory and warehouse processes, harvest execution, and work order execution.
The integration between finance and agricultural operations significantly improved decision-making speed and operational transparency. Field data became available to management teams more quickly, enabling proactive planning, better resource allocation, and stronger control over farm execution.
The AgriERP deployment helped EnH Farms move from manual, fragmented operations to a connected ERP ecosystem where finance, inventory, harvest, field execution, and reporting could work together. The solution delivered measurable operational and financial improvements across the organization.
