It is not that long ago since I bit the bullet and started to use EID, and since EID does not enable you to store all sheep records required by SEERAD, I would like the option to download all records on EID relevant to our holding, instead of painstakingly going through each individual entry.

On the subject of downloading, I have to say I am rather disappointed on the information downloaded to excel, ie, just the information from the tag reader. I would like all the fields and more shown on the screen; ie, Sheep, Reads, %, move, lot date, lot, Departure CPH, Read location, Destination CPH. In addition to these, I would also like the name of the CPH code, ie, Aberdeen Northern Marts, etc. It would be fair to say I have somewhat more experience with databases than your average person with working in IT support in the past. I just feel it is better to be able to download too much data than not enough, then we users can personally choose which fields we wish to import into our own records, whether it be database or spreadsheet.

Finally, my last request; I would like a memo fields available at all times, for example recording deaths, tagging, etc.

The other thing I have noticed is that the icons to search, print, etc, are rather small; can go unnoticed by those with good eye sight, never mind those visually impaired.
