Completing a Working

When all animals have been processed, complete the working to finalize the records.

How to Complete a Working

  1. Ensure all animals have been processed (status = Done) or make a decision on any remaining Pending animals.
  2. Click Complete Working.
  3. The working status changes to Completed.

What Happens on Completion

  • All task records are finalized (treatments created, statuses updated).
  • The working becomes read-only — you can view the results but not change them.
  • The working appears in the completed workings list for future reference.

Cancelling a Working

If you need to abandon a working before all animals are processed:

  1. Open the working.
  2. Click Cancel Working.
  3. The status changes to Cancelled.

Tasks completed before cancellation are still recorded on the animal records. Only unprocessed animals and tasks are abandoned.

Reviewing Past Workings

You can open any completed or cancelled working to review:

  • Which animals were processed.
  • Which tasks were completed or skipped (with reasons).
  • The date and details of the working.

Tips

  • Complete the working the same day. Finishing the working promptly ensures all records are accurate and timestamps are correct.
  • Review before completing. Check that all animals show as Done before marking the working complete.
