Record a completed treatment
Use Treatment to record a procedure that actually took place. Keep the date and description consistent with the veterinarian’s instructions and your farm records. Copy the medicine, dose and withdrawal instructions from the treatment plan into your notes for a clear history. Ask the responsible veterinarian about decisions affecting care or saleable produce. Do not record a planned procedure as completed; keep the record factual.
Check the animal and existing record
Before choosing Add Event, compare the animal’s ear tag and business with your source record. Health, treatment, parasite, reproduction and birth events require an active, unarchived animal. If this is the wrong record, close the form and find the correct animal. If an earlier attempt had an uncertain outcome, inspect its timeline before adding another event to avoid a duplicate.
Copy the completed procedure accurately
In Add Event, change the default Vaccine selection to Treatment. Enter a clear Title describing the completed procedure. Put relevant factual details in Note, copying any product, batch and professional instructions from the original record without guessing. Keep the original document. Record completed treatment with its actual date and use a separate follow-up reminder for a future planned check.
Separate event and follow-up dates
Event date initially shows today. For an earlier event, enter its actual date as YYYY-MM-DD or use the calendar. A future event date is rejected. The calendar uses a known birth date as its lower limit; check a typed date yourself too. Follow-up date is separate and optional. Enter the planned check date here and keep the date of the completed event in its own field.
Save and verify the result
If attaching an optional photo, wait for selection to finish. Review the required Title and the dates, then choose Save once. Correct the cause of any warning rather than submitting unchanged values repeatedly. Inspect the animal’s timeline for the saved date, category and description. If you entered a follow-up date, check the linked reminder. Check quiet hours, Android notification permission and battery settings so the phone is ready to show reminders.
Keep professional instructions available
Use the treatment event to keep your farm’s dated notes together with the original treatment documents and the details of the work performed. Do not infer a dose, repeat interval or milk or meat withdrawal date from the event category. Retain the veterinarian’s written directions and any required official records. Review an uncertain entry with that professional before relying on it for animal care or produce decisions.
