Filtering Animals Within Groups
When viewing animals inside a group, you can filter the list by:
- Animal type — Bull, Cow, or Calf.
- Sex — Filter by sex classification.

Tips
- Search is instant. Results appear as you type — no need to press Enter.
- Use partial matches. Typing “45” will find ear tags like “145,” “245,” and “450.”
- EID search is useful during workings. If you scan an EID tag, you can paste the number into search to find the animal quickly.
