SUM Command

A SUM report or command generates averages for specific items or animals within certain groups and presents the following details in a table or graph:

The graph view is flexible and can be adjusted on the fly.

Additionally, each of the table columns allows for sorting to quickly customize your data view.

See the following SUM command examples:

SUM MILK PCTF PCTS LGSCC BY lact PEN FOR LACT>0

SUM \Z TKET BY LCTGP FOR FDAT>-365

NOTE: The use of the \Z switch results in the inclusion of zero values for TKET, which includes all animals, not only those diagnosed with ketosisClosed Ketosis is a common ailment that usually occurs in early lactation, when the energy demands of milk production are very high and the cow metabolizes fat stores for energy. Symptoms of ketosis may include reduced milk yield, weight loss, reduced appetite, acetone smell of breath and/or milk, and fever.. Removing the switch only includes animals with TKET values, which leads to higher TKET averages.

SUM MILK DIM BY LACT FOR LACT>0

SUM BY AGE FOR LACT=0
