Summary:
This article documents the usage of Egg Grade-out Valuation which can be found through the System menu.
Prerequisites
Configurations
Egg Size Types
System --> Settings (Ribbon Bar) --> System Types tab --> Egg Size Types drop down
Under System Types under System Settings select the Egg Size Types drop down. These egg sizes need to be set up to set the Egg Size Configuration and utilize the Grade Out Batch.
Make sure that you have included the egg size type sort order. This order will be reflected in the Valuation configuration where you will set the egg size prices. If you want to enter them in in a specific order this is where it will be specified.
Users will also want to include on their egg sizes the Grade Type and whether the egg size type is considered a Grade A, large and above grouping. These choices will be reflected in reports and how the reports groups different sizes.
Revenue Codes
System --> Expense Codes --> Revenue Codes
Revenue codes can be set up here which include grade-out credits and deductions. If a revenue code is a deduction, you can specify which egg size types should be excluded from the calculations.
Valuation Configuration
For each Egg Type and division set the prices by Egg Size. The price unit of measure is determined by the setting on the egg grader configuration in egg processing equipment. Set the Allocation Method to be used (More information on these are below).

Enter in your Grade-Out information by Egg Type
On the Farms tab, include the flocks whose eggs are included in the batch. You can have one flock or multiples. You can choose the Load inline button to include all flocks that are inline for this plant.
Allocation Methods

For this process to distribute to the correct flocks, a user will need to include which flocks are included in the batch on the farm tab of the grade-out batch. If only one flock is included in the batch, that flock will receive 100% of the egg valuation. If multiple flocks are included in the batch it will utilize the selected allocation method.
Distribute value by eggs produced
For this allocation method, the batch will look at the inlcuded flocks' eggs produced to determine how much of the value each flock will receive. The egg type included on the egg production form will have
