Service Date - Remove an Extra
TO REMOVE AN EXTRA SERVICE DATE
If a service date has been entered in error prior to a calving event:
- Do not enter the calving date of the cow.
- Go to Entries: Service/heat date.
- Identify the animal that needs to have a service date removed by typing her number and pressing the tab key or highlight her in the list and double click your mouse.
- Click on the button beside the heat date field that has a blue arrow.
- A box with all entered service dates should appear blue with white text.
- Highlight the date that you want to have deleted/edited and double click it.
- The service event will appear on the screen
- If this service date is to be deleted, press the black X (3rd button on the toolbar).
- The service date will be deleted.
- Save data by clicking on the save button (2nd icon from the left) or pressing the F9 key
Note: The service date will not be permitted to be deleted if there is a calving date recorded after that service date. The calving date must be deleted under Entries, calving.
To edit a service date, do not press the black X on the tool bar - just change the data that needs to be edited and then press the Save (2nd button from the left on the tool bar) or press the F9 key.
