Merchant Ag ERP Connection Setup

Users can link their Merchant Ag ERP to FieldAlytics to connect growers, products, and blend tickets. One or many Merchant Ag databases can be connected within a FieldAlytics organization, each linked to a unique location. 

Before getting started, please contact FieldAlytics Customer Success about the desire to make the connection. FieldAlytics will then work with to Merchant Ag to authorize the connection via API.
