Movements can help you keep track of key shipment information, including number of livestock, reason for move-off, destination, and date moved off. Movement Drafts are designed to be created in advance for review before submission and can be viewed on the mobile app and the web portal.


There are two types of OFF Movements:

1. Network movements allow you to send animal records to another Breedr account.

2. Address book movements allow you to record where your animals have been sent to and move them to the archive list.

To complete a network movement, you must be an established member of a supply chain. Once you send animals to another member of your supply chain, those animal records will appear on their account.

Out-of-network movements can be done to any destination as a record-keeping tool. The animals will appear in the archived view of animals (viewed on the web) but they won’t go to someone else’s ranch.


To move an animal between holdings on your property, see Locations.


Movements Dashboard:

View animals moved OFF, moved ON, and any drafted movements, and submitted movements.


Note: You can set a movement for a future date, but it will be in your drafts until the date of the movement.
