Setup Session in Crush Mode
A set up session allows you to create as many templates as you need to repeat certain weighing and drafting requirements. For example you may create an 'Arrivals" or 'Exits" template, where you weigh and sort animals into locations or groups based on sex, days on farm or weight. This can be picked up and used again as and when new batches need sorting.

(Tip!) You can also override the drafting by clicking on a group shown at the bottom of the screen that you want the animal to move into. Once you have finished weighing and drafting, you can tap the pause button and then select the 'Save session' option. All saved sessions will be stored in the 'Finished' section within Crush Mode.
