Manage Dairy Protocols

Only users who are assigned to a Role with Herd Write permissions can use this feature. See Edit Dairy User Permissions and Manage Dairy Roles for more information.

View and edit available protocols and their details on the Dairy Protocols page.

• Click See Details to view protocol information in a side panel.
• Click Edit Protocol from the side panel to make changes to the protocol. This opens Protocol Builder, which allows you to edit the protocol.
• Click Trigger Event to see the event that activates the protocol.
• For protocols without daily tasks, click Duration to see the treatment time frame.
• Click Task List to view the protocol details by day.

You have multiple options for adding protocols.

• Start with a reproduction protocol template from the Gallery page to customize a reproduction protocol.
• Start with a health protocol template from the Dairy Protocols page to customize a health treatment.
• If a template is not available, click the Build Protocol button on the top right of the page to create a new custom protocol.

See Protocol Builder to learn more about building OvSynch and other protocols.

If you'd like to save time and add a protocol similar to an existing one, go to the Dairy Protocols page and click the copy button to begin customizing the protocol using Protocol Builder.

See Protocol Builder to learn more about building OvSynch and other protocols.

If your dairy is no longer using a protocol, you can deactivate it using the protocol side panel. This makes it unavailable for selection for new OvSynch or health events, but allows animals currently on the protocol to complete it.

First click See Details to view the protocol in a side panel, and then click the Active Protocol toggle to deactivate it.
