Inviting users to your farm in Datamars Livestock (administrators only)

The farm owner or manager needs to send an invitation to all staff using the active tag solution.

Updated over 9 months ago

During the installation of the active tag solution, the installer will have set up the farm in the Datamars Livestock web app and created an administrator's account for the farm owner or manager.

These credentials should be used to sign in to the Datamars Livestock web app. An invitation must then be sent out to all staff, consultants, vets using the active tag solution.

Note: Only someone with Admin permissions (i.e. the farm owner or manager) can invite users and this must be done in the Datamars Livestock Monitoring web app. Users cannot be invited in the mobile app.

When creating a user, different permission levels can be applied to staff members, depending on their role:

Permission levels

A viewer can

  • View animals in heat

  • View the health status of animals
