Eartag Update Import

Eartag Update Import

Instructions for Eartag Update import

Create the file

Header: API_ID/RegistrationID, New eartag, New barn name

Column 1: Can be API_ID or RegistrationID. The naming of this column is flexible. When the file is processed, it will determine if the API_ID or RegistrationID was used. If you are going to use Registration ID, it is recommended to use the Registration ID from the REG report item.
Column 2: Enter the new eartag of the animal
Column 3: Optional field, enter the new barn name of the animal





Save the file as a CSV file (comma separated).



Idea
To reduce errors in entering the API_ID or Registration ID, it is recommended to create the report of animals (using ApiId or REG) you would like to update, and then export this list.
This file needs to be comma-separated. Use of semi-colons will cause the import to fail.
