Aeros LIVE has a new feed planning process. A flock's feed plan will be generated on placement, and will be maintained and edited throughout the life a flock. This process estimates consumption requirements at discrete intervals from the first placement up to the end of the flock's projected life and determines when feed should be ordered, how much feed, of what formula, and what additives to include. The result is a list of feed plan records dated from the beginning to the end of the flock's life.
It is similar to the existing feed schedule process but the feed plan gives the user the ability to see upcoming deliveries for the life of the flock. Those deliveries will then appear in our feed order form. The feed order form will allow the user to search for many feed plan records across multiple dates, using filtered criteria. Once we find the records that suit the search they can be reviewed and marked committed, meaning they are certified and ready to be entered as orders, and ultimately sent to the feed mill.
Committed plan records are sent from the feed order screen, to the feed delivery stage. Once the Delivery Stage Records are committed they will become Feed Deliveries.
