poults hatched

 

Poults Hatched is used once the eggs have hatched, to record the number of baby poults hatched from eggs that were set. Dates will guide this flow. Based on the registry set-up, the poults hatched transaction can be manually created or system created. The registry switches are located in the Hatcheries tab in: Admin>System>Registry>Poultry Registry. Under Hatcheries>Him, select 'Hatch' and change the Hatch Transfer Mode for the required hatchery to 'Manual'. Then select 'Setter Transfer' and change the Setter Transfer Mode for the required hatchery, to 'Manual'.

Line Details

  5. If the registry switches are set to Manual, the lines will need to be added manually. In the Poults Hatched  screen, click to add a new hatch line. This automatically defaults to a Machine Inventory transaction. Available options in the drop-down menu are:
      1. Select from Machine Inventory - the transaction is created by selecting from the setter machine inventory.
      2. Non-Inventory Hatch - the entity is created first, then a Poults Hatched transaction is created manually, allowing the user to key the data.
      3. Manual with Poult Inventory - the transaction is validated against inventory.
      4. Select from Machine Inventory (by Set Date) - the transaction is created by selecting from the setter machine inventory based on hatch data or trans date.

  6. The Egg Hatchery Inventory box will display all current inventory for the selected hatchery.

 

 

 

  1. In the Egg Hatcher Inventory dialog box, select the required hatcher product, and in the Adj Eggs Set, enter the number of eggs still in the machines after adjustments (Example: rejects, destroyed,  etc.) Click 'OK'.
