Thank you.

Yes, should be able to get a fairly meaningful CSV out of it.

I did like Herdwatch but it wasn't quite there for me at the time. The medicine and ear tag scanning sounds really cool!

Has the UI of the PC version been updated at all? As I recall it wasn't as user friendly as I'd like (in that it was very similar to the app interface, and I have to think of my parents, who don't use smartphones and are used to "Windows-style" programmes). Keen to have another go at some point though!

How's the reporting? Would I be able to set multiple criteria / use Boolean to find specific animals? E.G. If I wanted to find animals who are in Herd A, have missed a year calving and have received antibiotic treatment in the last 12 months. A needlessly complicated example, but I have fond memories of being able to manipulate Salesforce in that way (in another life, pre-returning home to farm!!)

Good question @farmerfrankie

Also wondering if it’s possible to create batches and then use those batches to create a report by excluding and including certain batches already saved? The ability to have any report sorted by any parameter such as last calving, predicted calving etc?
