Update EID and/or VIDs against animals

You can add/update the EID and VID in both the mobile or web app by individually editing an animal or via a csv upload

In the mobile app, you can edit an individual animal detail to update the Electronic ID (EID) or Visual ID (VID). On the web app, you can also edit an individual animal detail to update the EID VID or you can update multiple IDs through the csv upload.

To update the VID and/or EID number against an animal in the mobile app:

1. Head to the 'My Cattle' tab > click on the animal you want to edit the details of
2. Manage
3. Edit
4. Edit VID and/or 'Show more IDs' for more options
5. EID field displays that you can type in the new/updated id number
6. 'Save and finish'

To update the VID and/or EID number against an animal in the mobile app:

From the 'My Cattle' tab > select an animal > click the yellow 'Manage' button Edit the VID and/or EID fields > Save and finish

To update EIDs/VIDs via csv upload if you have multiple EIDs/VIDs to update:

1. Go to your csv upload page > Custom Import (.csv file) > Edit Animals
2. 'Upload file' and then match the column headers to the data it is showing. Select 'IGNORE' in columns that you don't need to update (e.g. if you only need to update the Electronic ID, use the dropdown arrows on the Visual ID column and select 'IGNORE') > Finish upload

You can also update EID/VID in Crush mode: see article here
