There will be times when events occur that require a group, or series of groups or farms to make adjustments to any of the system tables. For example, the weather may get very cold in the middle of winter, and Feed Consumption tables will need to be adjusted accordingly.
To make these temporary adjustments, animal managers can utilize the Table Adjustment form and globally make a change for the time period required. Several table adjustments can be applied to a house or a group, so if there is one sick flock who is also facing unexpected weather, both conditions can be accounted for.
