Post a Farm Health Status Transaction

The posting process deletes existing data for the lab test code and updates with the new data defined in the Farm Status transaction for the date. Farm Status is only updated when the Lab Test Code>Processing Control Status is set to Tracked, End of Day, End of Week or the Lab Test Code>Transfer Control Status is set to Tracked, Transfer to Same Status, No Transfer, or the Lab Test Code>Placement Control Status is set to Tracked. The post logic does not require the Validate Health Status switches to be set to `true`. The Farm Status will always be updated based on the lab test code status.

1. In the Farm Health Status main index, select the required transaction and right-click to select 'Post'. Alternatively, click the green check mark in the top menu bar and select 'Post'.
2. To un-post a health status transaction, select the required transaction and right-click to select 'Unpost'.  This process will set the record status to 'Reversed' status, which allows the record to be edited.
