The quick list is similar to the herdsman's list which is more appropriate for day to day use on farm. The Quick List is, however, a very compact list which allows different timescales to be placed on each event of interest.
Effective date: The reference date used by the
"within (days)" column of the grid to determine which scheduled events
should be included.
List animals: Determines if the list should include animals in meat
withdrawal (due to drug treatment) and/or animals that are likely to return to
heat following recorded services.
List animals with the following event(s) due: Enter in the grid the
events that you want to include in the list. The Within (days) ensures
that the list only contains details of that event if scheduled within the given
number of days from the effective date.
The resulting list give a very concise list of animals with the chosen events scheduled within the specified number of days. In the example above PENNY has a PD scheduled on 17/05/00 which is 15 days before (-15) the specified date. P207 has a PD scheduled on 05/06/00 which is in 4 days from the specified date.
