Animal Not Found Dialog

This dialog may be shown while you are importing test day data from a file. If DairyLive finds a record in the file for an animal that is not in the database, this dialog will be shown to alert you to this fact. You can ask DairyLive to skip the animal, automatically add the animal to the herd database, or you can alter the barn name to one that already exists.

This may occur when you have added an animal with a barn name that has more than the number of characters that your DHIA testing lab uses for barn names. The first time DairyLive sees the shortened barn name, it will not know if it is a new animal or an existing one. This dialog allows you to resolve that question.

This dialog may also be shown when you are importing data for an animal that is not yet in your herd database.

Skip this Record

Select this option if you want to skip the current current entirely.

 

Skip All Records that Can't Be Matched to an Existing Animal

Select this option if you want to skip this animal as well as any animal that DairyLive can't match to an existing animal.

 

This Animal Is Already in the Herd Database
