October 2001
Introduction
The following amendments and enhancements have been made to CATTLEdata to allow for the Automatic E-mailing of Registrations and Movements to BCMS.
Mail Parameters
This new section contains the following:
Folder for Mail Files
This is the folder into which all the files created in the Mail Section are placed. The default folder is C:\Farmdata\Cattle32\Mail
Automatically Send Valid Files
When this is set to Yes the system will prompt you to send any files created in Movements by E-mail and Registrations by E-mail using the configuration below.
SMTP Mail Server
This is the e-mail address of the server that your e-mail goes through when it is sent. The Detect button can be used to try to fill this in for you. If this is unsuccessful then the Online Help gives some examples as to how to find this.
Source E-mail Address
This is the originating e-mail address that you supplied to BCMS
Destination E-mail Address
This can be one of the following:
conform@sis.defra.gsi.gov.uk for the conformance test
data@sis.defra.gsi.gov.uk for live data
Carbon Copy E-Mail address
This allows you to receive a copy of what you have just sent (optional)
Automatically Print Valid Files
When this is set to Yes the system will prompt you to print out any files created in Movements by E-mail and Registrations by E-mail.
Movements By CTS Online
This is a new section in the Mail group which allows for the creation of a file of movements for import into the CTS Online Web Site. It follows the same routines as the Registrations By CTS Online, and creates a file MOVE0001.csv in the Farmdata\Cattle32\Mail folder.
Updated Listings.
The slaughter premium report splits over and under 30 month animals as appropriate onto separate sheets. Sales listings show movements details on the foot.
Anilog Utility.
Now allows for the scanning of passports in the purchase routine.
Installation
Ensure you have an up to date backup of the application being updated.
If the update has been issued on CD-ROM:
Insert the CD into the CD-ROM drive. On systems with autoplay enabled, the installation menu will be displayed. If this is not the case choose Start and then Run and enter:
[d]:\setup where [d] is the drive letter of the CD-ROM.
If the update has been issued on floppy disk, choose Start and then Run and enter:
a:\setup
Before any files are copied you may be asked for an Activation Key. This is the number which appears on the Certificate of Licence and Authenticity which was issued with the last CD-ROM.
Process Complete.
If downloading the update from the Web go to To Install an update
WARNING
Be on the look out for disk errors. On no account ever ignore them. If messages appear which you do not understand or do not know how to check, you should call for assistance. FARMdata can accept no responsibility for users' actions.
