Edit CowCare Settings

Use the General settings to manage some of CowCare's system-wide operations. For example, you can control whether or not CowCare displays hints, includes LOT IDs on the usage screen, and so on.

The Automatically Approve Current-Day Usages option allows the system to automatically approve the use of a drug treatment whenever the drug is used on the current day, eliminating the need for you to manually approve its use.

Use the Disable Drugwatch option to turn off a prior application (called Drugwatch) which CowCarereplaced.

The General tab also includes dialog options, which are used to manage which fields will be required when entering data in a particular inventory screen. First, choose the screen you want to manage, then check the boxes for all of the entries you want to require for that screen. Users will then be required to enter information in those fields when using the Inventory feature.

Use the options on the Inventory settings to enable the CowCare Inventory feature and control how it functions:

To enable the Inventory feature, check the box named Use CowCare Inventory.

When you reopen CowCare, you can then set additional inventory-specific settings, such as the ability to highlight low inventory items, allow drug loses to be deleted, and so on.

For DC305 systems with multiple premises, you can use the Combine Premises for Inventory options to select a premise and then combine its inventory tracking with one or more other premises.
