CowCards at a Glance
The numerous ways to open and view a CowCard in VAS PULSE Platform ensure you can always access your animals' information in just a few clicks. To make navigating CowCards much easier, you should familiarize yourself with the features below:
- Animal Overview: The bar at the top of the page provides a brief summary of the animal, such as its current pen and reproductive code.
- CowCard Page Tabs: These pages are where you'll find all of the animal's details beyond the summary. By default, CowCards open to the Overview page.
- Page Details: This section of the page displays data for the selected tab. The Overview page, for example, displays the animal's most recent events, a summary of its items, and more.
