Build New Reports
AfiFarm provides a report wizard to guide you in building your own reports. To build a report, the first step is to decide the goal: what data must be shown as the end result, and why this is useful.
Once this is confirmed, you will need to select what data you want displayed in the report, and the criteria for including and excluding animals.
