How to use Litter Task Templates

Task templates allow you to create a series of tasks that trigger automatically when a new litter is born. These tasks will appear on your task list so you won’t forget to do them. You can create different Litter Task Templates based on the purpose of your litter, the breed, or any other reason. This will come in especially handy if you raise for many uses such as Brood, Meat, Pet, and Show, or if you raise many breeds that have different needs.

How to Edit Litter Task Templates


Within Settings, you are able to save your own personalized Templates with custom Tasks and set days.

Litter Task Templates can be created and edited on the right side of the form. By clicking the drop-down box, you can view your saved Templates. To edit a Template, click on it to select it. Clicking “Edit” will allow you to change the Template name, you can click “Delete” to Delete the selected Template, and selecting “Add” will create a new Template.
