Inserting a Location Code

Location codes are used only for horses that are stabled at a different address to that shown in the client details, so you can track the whereabouts of each horse. A location can be allocated a value for the number of kilometres from the surgery, and used to auto calculate the mileage charged on each invoice. By default VisionVPM populates the Location field with the client's code.

1. From the Animal Details window, click the Location arrow.
2. From the Location List window click Insert.
3. In the Code and Description fields, type a code and description for the sire.
4. In the Distance field, type the distance from your clinic to the location.
   • Alternatively, this could be the round-trip distance from your clinic and return.
5. Click Save.

Results

• The location code will appear in the selection list for locations and can now be attached to equine records.

The Location Distance will be multiplied by your Mileage fees as you apply them to the invoice for each animal.
