Animal Sources List

Summary

The Animal Sources list is a centralized directory of vendors used for animal acquisitions. It can include both one-time sources and recurring vendors. This list serves as a predefined drop-down menu available throughout The Animal Welfare App, such as when new Individuals or Collections are received using the Animal Registry.

Animal Sources can be added at either the Company Admin level or the Facility/Department level:

• If configured at the Company Admin level, the source will appear as an option in all configured Facilities/Departments for the company.

• If configured at the Facility/Department level, the source will appear only within that specific Facility/Department.
