Custom Data on Animal List and in Animal Details

Stockbook has the facility to customise 4 fields, both on the main animal list and within the animal details. This gives the ability to display a customised field for easy viewing on the main animal screen. 

Before proceeding please note the following:

Please ensure you do not already have data stored in the field that is about to be changed.  Renaming the field may cause confusion if there is already some data in it.

We also suggest leaving the NLIS/NAIT field exactly as it is because it is in fact an important field.

To change the name of the user field

1. Go to Setup > User Options > User Fields
   
2. Change the name of the chosen field
   
3. Click OK.
   
   

      

Here is an example of how it could look.

      

To check the changed field is selected to show on the Animals list screen,

1. Click Change Display
   

      

      

      

      

      You are now able to enter the coding of your choice to this field.

      The image below shows how the Data Type and Stockbook Field should look at import stage.
