Inter-Property Moves

Inter-Property Moves

Often when a company has multiple Properties, they will be split up into Management Areas and staff have limited access to their Management Area only. Inter-property movements provide a solution where both the sending and receiving Property can complete a session to ensure animals are correctly relocated within StockMate. Through a Handling: Inter-Property Exit/Arrival session the options exist to scan animals at both properties, use bulk movements or auto create the Inter-property Arrival based on the Inter-property Exit session.

Inter-Property Exit

When transferring animals from one property to another the sending property is required to create a Handling: Inter-property Exit session. They are able to nominate the internal property the animals will be going to, along with NVD numbers and other information. This session can be created either via Scan session (app or web), Bulk Session (app or web) or CSV import (web only). 
On Session setup ensure the session type is Handling, and session subtype is Inter-Property Exit.
When animals have been through an Inter-property Exit, but not the corresponding Inter-property Arrival, in reporting their Property will remain as it was, and their Paddock will be In Transit.
Refer to Sessions Overview (app) or Sessions Overview (web) and related articles for further information on creating sessions.

Auto Copy Inter-Property Arrival (Web)

Once the animals physically arrive at the receiving property there are a few options: scan the animals into a Handling: Inter-Property Arrival session (or use a scan file to create an import CSV), or use auto create session to copy the animals and details from the Inter-property Exit session. This can be useful for when animals are unable to be scanned on arrival or when there is confidence in the accuracy of the Inter-property exit scans.  

Tenant Settings

On the Web, adjust the Tenant Settings to allow for the auto copy of Inter-Property Exit sessions, into Inter-property Arrivals.
Administrator User Permissions are required to update Tenant Settings.
  1. Select Administration, Tenant Settings, Select Sessions. Tick Auto copy Inter-property Exit details to Inter-property Arrival session,
    When the auto copy setting is on, a scan session for the Inter-property arrival can still be completed, if required.

    A Default Paddock must be selected for the auto copy of scans to occur.

  5. The session will be auto-populated with the Animals, and NVD numbers from the corresponding Inter-property Exit session. The Property and Paddock for the animal will be as nominated in the New Sessions form.

Bulk Handling: Inter-property Arrival (Web)

Scan/Import: Inter-property Arrival
