Edit animal data

The action Edit allows you to change the animal data of the selected animal directly. This function makes it easier to correct the animal data if, for example, it becomes apparent during the animal inspection that the gender has been saved incorrectly. You can change the following data:

• Type of animal
• Sex
• Birth weight
• Breed
• Whereabouts
• National animal ID
• ID
• Multiples
• Date of birth
• Calving ease

2. Either scan an animal using the transponder or select an animal from the list. Confirm with OK and select an animal with the arrow keys △ ▽. Confirm with OK.

3. A submenu with the animal actions opens. Use the arrow keys ◁ ▷ △ ▽ to select the action Edit and confirm with OK.

4. A list with the animal data opens. Use the arrow keys △ ▽ to select the desired change option.

5. For the data Type of animal, Sex, Birth weight, Breed, Whereabouts, Multiples and Calving ease use the arrow keys ◁ ▷ to make the desired change.

6. For the data ID and Date of birth select them with the arrow keys △ ▽ and confirm with OK. Use the arrow keys △ ▽ to select the corresponding number and the arrow keys ◁ ▷ to navigate within the number fields.
