The number of backups to be retained can now be set.

AIMS data backups are quite small so we have never worried about the number of backup retained on the users machine.

With the new Permit Document Manager being introduced shortly AIMS will backup your permit scans.

These are in the form of PDF files which do not compress much below their original size.  Therefore the Backup of the Permit folder can be quite large.

See Backing up and restoring your data for more details.

Updated insemination page

Added entries for quality of insemination and how well female is drawing if not forced AI.

New movement types

Added two new movement types:

Acquisition – Internal Transfer
Disposition – Internal Transfer

These are used if your project is spread over a number of sites and each is using AIMS.  It tells the system that the movement is from or to a facility that you own.

This will be used in some new features we are implementing shortly.

Added Mortality Report

During a recent CITES Breeder registration inspection to one of our users the inspectors asked to see details of mortality.

This report has been added in the Stock Reports for this.

It allows you to select a date range for the report.

The report gives you the birds details, date of death, age at death and cause of death.

It also gives a total count at the end of the report for mortality during the selected data range.
