Using MINDA, you can import pregnancy diagnosis results for your animals. When importing pregnancy diagnoses, you'll need to know:
Date the animal(s) were scanned
Animal ID
Pregnancy diagnosis results
Important:
Pregnancy Status must be Pregnant, Doubtful or Empty.
Animal ID must be Cow number, BID or EID (If using EID make sure there is a space after the first 3 numbers i.e. 123 456789012345).
Date must be formatted DD/MM/YYYY or DD/MM/YY using either a "/" or "."
How do I import Pregnancy Diagnosis results?
Select Event Recorder from the dashboard and then select Import. Next go through the steps on screen.
Step 1. Select the Event type & file
When you first head into the Import tool, choose Pregnancy Diagnosis as your event type then select your import file.
Tip: If you're having trouble with your import file, try our Pregnancy diagnosis template.
Step 2. Review file headers
Using the drop down options, match the headers with the columns in your import file. The headers you'll need to match are:
Animal ID
Date
Pregnancy status
Pregnancy age (optional)
Pregnancy age unit i.e. weeks or days (optional)

Note: If your import file contains a header row, make sure you tick File contains a header row.
Step 3. Validate and edit
MINDA will check your import file and if there are any issues, rows with invalid information will be highlighted. Depending on the number of invalid rows, you can either:
Fix them from within the Import tool
Download the invalid rows file at the end
