NLIS Database and Stockbook
Setting up the NLIS tab and access it provides you.
The National Livestock Identification System (NLIS) is Australia’s scheme for the identification and tracing of livestock.
The NLIS combines three elements to enable the lifetime traceability of animals:
- an animal identifier (a visual or electronic ear tag known as a device)
- identification of a physical location by means of a Property Identification Code (PIC)
- a web-accessible database to store and correlate movement data and associated details
The NLIS tab in Stockbook allows you to setup a direct link between the online NLIS Database and your Stockbook program.When you open the NLIS tab you can do:
- PIC Reconciliations,
- Property Transfers and
- Remove animals that have died or gone missing
When you click on the NLIS tab you will taken to the NLIS Functions screen. From here you can select what you want to do.

Property Transfer
The Property Transfer tab lets you select animals or have pre-selected a group of animals which you have bought or sold and enter details about where they have come/gone to. Pressing upload will send these details to the NLIS Database.
Introducing Breeding Males
The Introduced Breeding Males tab allows you to introduce animals to your PIC for temporary purposes. You may have a sire on your place that you don't necessarily own but are using for joining purposes so you would use this function to update the NLIS Database with this information.
Recording Replaced Tags
The Replaced Tags tab enables you to upload to the NLIS Database any animals that have had new tags put in. When you scan a new EID to an animal that already had an EID Stockbook will add a note beside the animal. These animals will then appear in this list so that you can upload that information to the NLIS Database.
Deceased on Farm
The Died on Farm tab allows you to select animals or have pre-selected a group of animals which died on the farm and select which pic they died on. Pressing upload after doing this will update the NLIS Database.
