Dashboard Overview
The Dashboard is the first screen you see when you log into Cattle360. It provides a real-time snapshot of your operation with quick access to the most common tasks.
What You’ll See
The Dashboard displays several sections:
- Group summary cards — Each group you’ve marked “Show on Dashboard” appears as a card showing the group name, animal count, and a quick link to view the group.
- Herd totals — A summary of your total active animals by type.
- Quick action buttons — One-click access to add animals, create groups, and other common tasks.
Group Cards
Group cards are the primary feature of the Dashboard. Each card shows:
- Group name — The name of the group.
- Animal count — How many animals are currently in the group.
- Group type — Whether the group is static or smart.
Click on a group card to view the animals in that group.
Navigating from the Dashboard
From the Dashboard, you can access all major sections of Cattle360 through the top navigation menu:
- Production — Breeding, Calving, and Weaning.
- Groups — The full Groups Dashboard.
- Markets — Auction data and market intelligence.

Tips
- Show your most-used groups on the Dashboard. When editing a group, toggle “Show on Dashboard” to keep important groups visible at a glance.
