What are Dictionaries and how to use them?


The “Dictionaries” tab shows all word resources added to the farm. Dictionaries are indispensable for adding reasons for events in the conduct of breeding, but not only. We can also add contractors, task categories and animal breeds in them.

Once an entry is added to the dictionary, it will be available for selection in the corresponding forms. To add the appropriate entries, go to the “Settings” tab -> “General” -> “Dictionaries” in the main menu of the farm.

To add a new entry, click the “Plus” icon . Entries can be edited with and deleted by clicking the “Pencil” icon or the “Trash” icon

Contractors: This tab includes all customers, i.e. companies and individuals to whom pigs are sold or who supply pigs.

The dictionary is used in the process of reporting economic sales in the “Sales” tab located in the Farms menu.

Reasons for demise: Here are various reasons by which the pig may have died. This can be useful for tracking herd health and identifying health problems. Once the new reason for demise is added, it will be available for selection in the form for reporting pig deaths.
