Fusion 4.2

Build Date: 2022-05-13

New Features

  • We are excited to add APEC to our list of micro machine integrations. If you have an APEC machine, you'll be able to use it seamlessly with Fusion in your feeding now.
  • Fusion now calculates carcass adjusted values. This new feature takes form as follows:
    • There is a new preference in the Preferences window, Lots section named Default Base Dressing Percent. It will default to 60%, but you can change it. This will be the value used when creating brand new lots.
    • The Lot Edit window has a new field named Base Dressing Percent. With new lots, this value comes from the preferences but it can be changed. It is the percentage that out cohort dressing weights will be adjusted back to when Fusion calculates the carcass adjusted values.
    • The Out Cohort Edit window has a new field named Dressing Weight where you enter the total dressing weight for the out cohort once it is known. The dressing percentage will be shown to the right of this field.
    • The Lot Center window (and the Print Detail reporting system) have a new section named Carcass Adjusted Values which show the carcass adjusted values when they can be calculated. They will only be calculated if all the non-death out cohorts have a dressing weight entered.
    • The above new fields, including the carcass adjusted fields, are included in the appropriate lists like the Lot Center and Out Cohort list windows where you can view, sort, query, and print them. They are also available in the Lot Info Export feature.
  • The following new fields have been added to the Lot Info Export feature:
    • CurrentPenUUID. Added to each animal.
    • HomePenUUID. Added to each animal.
    • UserUUID. Added to each diagnosis.
    • TotalDressingWeight. Added to a lot's out cohorts.
    • CarcassAdjusted_LotBasePercent.
    • CarcassAdjusted_ActualOutCohortPercent.
    • CarcassAdjustedTotalOutWeight.
    • CarcassAdjustedADG_NoDeads.
    • CarcassAdjustedFeedEfficiency_NoDeads.
    • CarcassAdjustedCostOfGain_NoDeads_NoInterest.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixes an issue that caused lot integrity errors when editing out cohorts in a certain way which required manual adjustments.
  • Fixes an issue where automatic emails were no longer being sent from with Fusion. In fixing this, we had to remove the ability of Fusion to send text messages when an urgent internal message was created.
  • There was an issue where occasionally Fusion Server was not able to retrieve new license keys or upgrade information. Several things were enhanced to make this system more robust.

Experimental Feature

We also added an experimental feature called Delivery Guide Streaming. It may not continue to exist in the future, but if you want more information feel free to contact us.
