Total Sheep
Sum-It's Total Sheep Management programs are designed to handle all aspects of flock recording. Starter Total Sheep will record activities and movements on a simple flock basis whereas Standard Total Sheep provides individual ewe records.

Starter Level
Total Starter Sheep is designed to provide an electronic Flock Register, holding all movement details and lambing numbers. Running totals of flock sizes are available at any time. Full health records are stored to Assurance standards. Flock Gross Margins and Lamb Sales figures can also be analysed.
Standard Level
Total Standard Sheep is designed for those who record their flock on an individual ewe basis. Incorporating all facilities from the Starter Level, this program goes onto hold each ewe's record with a comprehensive history of the animal, including all lambings, health and genealogy data. Records can be input on either individual or block methods and a wide range of flexible reports enable you to analyse the flock's performance by any criteria.
All Total Standard Sheep reports can be easily exported into Excel, CSV, TXT and PDF formats.

Optional Modules and Equipment
Using the Total Standard Sheep program, you can record any event as it happens with the Pocket Sheep Module running on a Palmtop. This imports the sheep data from Total Standard Sheep onto the Palmtop to either review the status of each animal or input new events, such as lambings, drug treatments and weights as you do them outside. This data can then be synchronised with Total Sheep back on the office PC at anytime. For further details please go to Pocket Total.
The Electronic Weigher Interface Module links Total Standard Sheep to Trutest 2000/3000 and other electronic scales to import weights automatically.
