Value your Eggs based on Egg Size Pricing

Available in Aeros LIVE version 1.45+



For each Egg Type and division set egg prices by Egg Size. Set effective dates if egg prices change each week.  The valuation will use the appropriate effective dates based on the grade-out batch.



 In Grade-Out, on the Farms tab, include the flocks whose eggs are included in the batch.  You can have one flock or multiples. There are currently two pricing allocation methods for this process that is set on the valuation configuration form (Distribute by Eggs Produced, Distribute by Hen Days).  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 included flocks' eggs produced to determine how much of the value each flock will receive.  The egg type included on the egg production form must be the same as the egg type on the grade-out batch for it to get a cut.  The batch date on the grade-out batch will also have to match the egg production date that it will pull eggs produced for.

Distribute egg value by hen days

For this allocation method, the batch will be distributed by the hen days for each flock included in the grade-out batch.  Their percentage of the total hen days will be used to determine how much of each egg they receive. An expense record is created for each one, with the total amount equaling their share of that egg size * price per dozen.





Deductions and Credits can be set up to be included in the pricing as well.



When you open up your grade-out batch, there is a tab on the top of the form for valuation, valuation will list what the pricing configuration, effective date, and the allocation type in the header.  If you are ready to price you will select the price button.
