StudMaster 4.4a Changes

Subversion (24)

4 June 2007

1. Feed code

Function BB - Enter masses

Function BE - Official report

Feed code 7 indicating crop residue feeding status.

2. Id number format

Function HGF - Import Iris registration numbers

Function AI - Import Iris registration numbers (duplicate)

Registration numbers cannot be imported if animal ID numbers are not in the prescribed HHHHYY-SSSS format. For instance if the "-" character is missing, this is a deviation from the prescribed ID number format. Solved this problem by allowing the ID number format to be specified using Function HAH - ID number format. Here you can indicate your specific ID number format which is then used in the importing of registration numbers.

1. Dam mass at wean

Function AG - Birth notifications

Corrected a problem where the dam mass at wean were not included in the electronic version of the birth notification. This only affected breeds registering with S.A. Studbook.

2. Number of copies

Various functions

Various functions in StudMaster prompted for the number of copies printed when pressing Alt-P. All these were removed. Some printers went mad when it was processing one print job and another came in to quickly.

24 May 2007

1. Lees elektroniese registrasienommers van nuutgebore kalwers

Funksie HGF - Lees registrasienommers (en Funksie AI as duplikaat)

Wanneer nuwe geboortes elektronies by S.A. Stamboek ingedien word, voorsien Stamboek 'n resultaatlęer met die registrasienommers van die aanvaarde geboortes, hetsy per epos of Logix. Hierdie lęer word dan na u rekenaar gekopieer vanwaar dit in StoetMeester ingelees kan word.

In die verlede moes die lęernaam in detail getik word om dit te kon inlees. Hierdie proses was omslagtig omdat 'n enkele karakter wat verkeerd ingetik word, gemaak het dat die inlees nie suksesvol was nie.

In teenstelling met bogenoemde, vertoon StoetMeester nou 'n lys van lęername waarmee die lęer wat ingelees moet word, gekies word. Geen tikwerk is dus meer nodig nie.

2. Lees elektroniese prestasietoetsresultate

Funksie HGG - Lees prestasietoetsresultate

Soos verduidelik in punt 1 hierbo, word 'n lys van lęername nou vertoon in plaas daarvan dat die lęernaam getik moet word om verwerkte elektroniese prestasietoetsresultate in te lees.

3. Lees elektroniese massa teelwaardes

Funksie FAA - Lees massa teelwaardes

Soos verduidelik in punt 1 hierbo, word 'n lys van lęername nou vertoon in plaas daarvan dat die lęernaam getik moet word om massa teelwaardes in te lees.

4. Lees data vanaf ander teler

Funksie HGB - Lees oordraagbara data

Voorheen was hierdie funksie beperk tot "stiffie" A: en B: diskette. Oordraagbare data kan nou ook vanaf geheuestokkies (Flash disks) of cd's gelees word.

5. Mikroskyfie nommer

Funksie AD - Bewaar nuutgebore kalwers

Mikroskyfie nommer word gevra by die aanteken van nuutgebore kalwers. Dit is nie 'n verpligte veld nie, maar wel nodig vir telers wat beplan om vleisprodukte uit te voer.

6. Naam van dier

Funksie AD - Bewaar nuutgebore kalwers

Fout reggestel waar die naam van die dier nie korrek vooraf ingevul was nie. Hierdie probleem het vir alle naamgewende rasse gegeld. Bonsmara het dus nie die probleem ervaar nie.

7. Kalfboeknommer

Funksie EH - Inspeksieverslag

Enige verwysing na die kalfboeknommer soos voorheen deur Bonsmara gebruik is verwyder. Slegs rekenaarnommers word nou gedruk.

8. Braford generasie

Funksie AG - Druk geboortekennisgewings

Generasies word nou gedruk en elektronies weergegee as F1, F2 ens. in plaas van hulpstamboek A, B ens.

9. Herskep indekslęers

Funksie HD - Skrap of verander ID nommers

Die vraag of indekslęers eers geskep moet word wanneer diere geskrap of diere se ID nommers verander word, is verwyder. Deesdae se rekenaarspoed is van so aard dat hierdie vraag onnodig is. Hierdie aksie sal nou outomaties geneem word.
