hatchery transfers

 

Egg Room Hatchery Transfers are used when the eggs are transferred from hatchery to hatchery. A transfer-out between hatcheries is a two-step process, and there must be a transport hatchery set up prior to creating a transfer-out transaction. The eggs must first be received into the Source hatchery (Hatchery 1). The transfer-out function will transfer the eggs to the Transport hatchery. The transfer-out function will transfer the eggs from the Transport hatchery to the Destination hatchery (Hatchery 2).

The Egg Room Transfers Method switch must first be in the Automated option before a Hatchery Transfer can be created. The switch is located in: Admin>Registry>Poultry Registry>Poultry>Pmts>Turkey Breeder>General>Egg Room Transfers Method.

 

A Farm Receiving transaction must be created prior to creating an order shipment.

 

The following procedures are outlined in the Processing transaction document:
