In this guide, we will go through updating animal information in the NAIT system.
Starting on the NAIT home screen, select Manage NAIT activities and choose Animals under View, find and update. To find the animal you wish to update, you can either use search filters, or you can find the animal within the list.
Once you know which animal you wish to update, select the box to the left of the NAIT tag number. Once it turns blue, select Edit selected animals and choose Edit animal details. This will take you to the page of the animal’s details, where you can update any of them that are incorrect. You can provide an other visual tag, update the production type, or add additional details like breed and gender.
Once you’re happy with the information, press Save. The system will show a green box if the update was successful. If you locate the animal in your list, you’ll be able to see that its new details have been applied. After that, you’re good to go.
Please remember — all information that is provided to the NAIT system must be accurate at the time it’s provided, and kept up to date. Thank you for supporting traceability and disease management in New Zealand.
