This window is where all the manual pen weight changes are listed.
This window has the following menu buttons available. (See the List Windows topic to learn more about list windows in general.)
You can open this window by going to Fusion Core → Events → List Change Pen Weight Events or Fusion Chuteside → Events → List Change Pen Weight Events.
Fusion automatically adjusts every pen's weight each night. This is done based on the settings of the principle lot in the pen, usually with NRC equations and based on the feed consumption of the previous day. When animals are moved to different pens, Fusion automatically adjusts the pen's weights. It also does this when in and out cohorts affect the weight of pens. However, there may times when you need to manually adjust the weight of a pen using the Change Pen Weight function. When this happens, a record of the change is kept in this list.
Field | Display Speed | Description |
---|---|---|
Date | Normal | The date and time the weight change happened. |
User Name | Normal | The user who made the change. |
Entity Description | Normal | A description of the entity that was changed. Normally this will be a pen, but it is possible to change the weight of one lot in a multi-lot pen and this would show that. |
Count | Normal | The number of animals in the entity for which the weight was changed. |
Previous Weight | Normal | The weight of the entity before the change was made. |
New Weight | Normal | The weight of the entity after the change was made. Note that if only part of the pen has its weight updated, the average pen weight will be updated but won't likely be the same value as this field unless the other entities in the pen are also the same weight. |
Note | Normal | You can enter a note explaining why the weight change was necessary when making the change and it will be stored here. |
Event Date | Normal | The date the weight change occurred. |
Event Time | Normal | The time of the weight change. |
Location | Normal | The location of the pen where the weight change was made. |
Pen | Normal | The pen where the weight change was made. |
Lot | Normal | If only part of a pen is having its weight changed, this will be the lot of those animals. |
Did Specify All | Normal | When making a weight change, you can enter the number of animals to make the change for. Normally you do this for all animals and a button makes it easy to do this. This field records whether the user asked Fusion to do it for all animals or not. |
