StocKeeper 2003:
Powerful Features

Herd-Pro Software has been in the business of developing and supporting livestock management software for several years. Over the years we have always taken pride in the fact that we listen to our users. If one of our users has a feature request, we take it seriously and, more often than not, that feature request becomes part of the software. We've taken this philosophy one step further with the release of StocKeeper. We've combined the powerful features that our users expect with evaluations from leading universities and dairy consultants and, finally, added several ways for the individual to further customize the software. Below is a quick overview of the main features that can be found in StocKeeper.

And don't forget that we are always listening to our users. If you have an idea or need you'd like to share with us, please contact us.

A list of features that can be found in StocKeeper:

Easy-to-use Interface

Full featured handheld version

You can use StocKeeper Companion Palm OS Software to take all of your data into the field with you. In addition to being able to look up any information on any animal while you are in the field, you can also enter all of your data on the Palm OS handheld. When you are finished for the day, one button push will import all of your data into your desktop computer.

Powerful Reporting

StocKeeper comes with an extensive set of built-in reports. The included reports cover Fertility, Production, Medical, and Pedigree information. Popular reports include the Task Watch List, Herd Check Report, Animal and Barn cards, and Lactation Curves Reports. In addition to the built-in reports, you can create and save an unlimited number of custom reports, selecting the specific information you need. These reports can all be viewed on-screen, printed, exported to Excel, or saved as PDF files for future reference or to send via email or post to a web site. For more information, take a look at the reports page.

Complete Customization

We've made StocKeeper one of the most customizable livestock management programs out there. Just a few of the features you can customize to specifically meet the needs of your farm include:

• Medical Terminology
• Group and Location names
• Milking Options
• Animal Time Intervals (such as dry period, length of gestation, number of days bred before checking for pregnancy, etc.)
• Warning Variables (for the Task Watch List)
• Custom Fields for tracking unique data. New for '03

Multiple Language Support

StocKeeper can support multiple languages. We currently offer Spanish, English, Italian, and Portuguese with more to come. Since StocKeeper can easily switch between languages while you are working, it makes it not only ideal for users of StocKeeper outside of North America, but can greatly assist in the management of farms that employ herd managers that speak multiple languages.

Share Data with DHIA, Milk Meters and more...

StocKeeper interfaces with many of the DHI Associations and Milk Metering systems on the market. We also interface with the HeatWatch Estrus Detection System and the Holstein Association's Red Book AI Sire Database. We can also input DairyComp 305, DairyQuest and Herd-Pro data so you do not need to re-enter all of your already created herd data. We're always adding more interfaces so please contact us if you need to interface with another product. Visit our Compatibility page for more information on the products and services we interface with.
