This guide will walk through the process of creating a Sold-Cull event with either reason: "Sold to Finisher" or "Sold to Dairy" and a full history copy. This method will sell an animal from farm A to farm B. This process will create a new animal at farm B and will copy all history to the new farm.
You can only perform these events from BoviSync web.
Before you can sell animals to the receiving farm you will need to make sure you have "Move Only" permission at the receiving farm. A user with admin permissions will need to provide you with "Move Only" permission. Follow this guide to for that process by clicking on
this link.
If you already have the "Move Only" permission at the receiving farm you can proceed to the next step.
