For Scottish cattle keepers, the functions available on CTSOnline will be available on ScotEID, called ‘ScotMoves+’, from the 4th October 2021 and CTS will no longer be available. Breedr will be supporting our Scottish farmers to send both external (ScotMoves+) and internal (ScotMoves) movements via our

platform.

If you already have a ScotEID account, you can use your existing username (email) and password, that you use to login to ScotEID to connect your Breedr account, to your ScotEID account. This will then allow you to import your animals and sync them to your Breedr account.

If you don't have a ScotEID account, you can create one on the ScotEID website by clicking this link https://www.scoteid.com/user/register

Make sure to keep a note of the username and password you create.

10. Lastly, to turn on your Movements to ScotEID ScotMoves+ for registering external movements and also ScotMoves for registering internal movements, scroll further down the page and tick the "Send registrations and movements to ScotMoves" box and then tap the "Save changes" button.

You are now set to do internal and external movements via Breedr. See our guides below on how to manage external and internal movements


See our video on how send movements to ScotMoves+ (external movements)

The moves ‘external’ to your business, which are; private sale moves, moves to and from shows, and moves relating to the hire of bulls are reported to the new system, ScotMoves+.


See our video on how to send movements to ScotMoves (internal movements)

The moves that are ‘internal’, i.e. within business moves, must continue to be reported to ScotMoves, if you use additional holdings. In Breedr you can add in your main holding and sub holdings and associate them to locations in your account. When you move an animal from one location to another this will generate a local movement for you to approve.
