Stockbook

• Added the ability to filter the animal list for purchased animals by vendor declaration number and/or vendor PIC. Refer to article Filter by Vendor Declaration/PIC.
• Added the ability to filter the animal list on treatment history. Refer to article Filter by Treatment.

• Notes and lot numbers can now be imported into sale catalogues. There is no limit to the length of the notes. The import file must contain the sale catalogue name as one of the imported columns.
  
• Altered the Sheep Genetics export to allow the user to select sending either the animals or mating data, or both. Also the animal export can be done just on selected animals.
• You can now end a joining for ALL females to a sire (or a number of sires), by selecting the sire(s) and doing a sire out joining event.

Live Entry

• Observation Code can now be set globally as an EID shortcut. Previously it could only be set for a weight.

• Live Entry session files are now stored within the database, so can be synced and viewed. To view the session select Activity | Sessions | View from within Live Entry. Note that sessions from previous versions appear in the list, but they will not have the session files attached.
• Added a species selection box on the Live Entry startup screen in case the user wants to change which species they are currently using in Live Entry.
• You can now draft animals in Live Entry based on the sire they were last preg tested to.
• The messages window in Live Entry can now be hidden if you user does not wish to view any messages. Note that the window will still be displayed if an animal has been flagged.

Miscellaneous Minor Changes
