If horses already exist in the system, they are shown in snap-shot format with:

  • Horse Name

You can view the list in a different sort order by clicking on the four headings and can search the horse database by entering a few chars in the horse name box.

The system will display all horses found with your selection any where in the horse name. Additional Horse searches can be done by activating the 'show filters', and then selecting a Horse Class & or Horse Sex etc. The snap-shot viewed can be changed by using the ‘Show Filters’. The filter allows you to trim the records by name/colour/sex and horse class.

In charging out all keep and other charges, the system will check the effective ownership date against the charge date and allocate the charges accordingly to the appropriate owner at that date.


Step 3: Review and Save

The system will display a summary of the wizard inputs for the horse, to complete, press the ‘Finish and Save’ button.

Advanced Ownership Settings

At Step 1 When using Advanced billing options, only Keep % and Charge % are used to calculate billing amounts. Use this option if you need to have different % values for Keep/Board and other charges. The Owned % will be ignored in this scenario.

Pedigree

The System can provide a 4th and 5th generation family tree per horse composed of the sire and dam of the Horse and the sires and dams as specified in the Breeding section of the Horses included in the family tree.

4th Generation

A Horses family tree is recursively generated based upon the Sire and Dam of the Horse and subsequently their Sire and Dam selections. The 4th Generation family tree is an editable family tree, where the user can manually change and update a Horses family tree.

The Add Icon is displayed in any cell on the family tree where a Horse is not specified. Clicking any cell including those with the Add Icon pops up the Sire or Dam Search, depending upon the selected cell. Users can search for the appropriate Sire or Dam for the level of the family tree and/or add a new Pedigree Horse if required.
