Best Practices

<� Consistent Naming

Develop and stick to a naming convention. Include your rabbitry prefix, year, or sequential numbers for easy identification.

<� Regular Updates

Set a weekly reminder to update weights and check for needed health tasks. Regular updates lead to better insights.

<� Complete Profiles

The more complete your profiles, the more valuable your reports. Include photos, pedigree info, and detailed notes.

<� Use Categories

Organize rabbits into logical categories from the start. This makes filtering and reporting much more powerful.

Common Issues

Check your filters - you may be filtering out the rabbit. Also check if the status was changed to "Sold" or "Deceased" which removes them from active lists.

Use the merge feature to combine duplicates. Go to Settings � Data Management � Merge Duplicates. The system will preserve all historical data.

Ensure you have a stable internet connection. Check for any validation errors (red fields). Try refreshing the page and re-entering the data.
