Where does the data come from?
The data in the AKKPS Online Herd Book is taken directly
from the database that the Registrar uses to run the
AKKPS. The on-line data is updated from the master
database periodically. The date and time it was last updated
appears at the bottom of each page of the Online Herd Book.
What if I notice a mistake in my pig's data? If
there's a mistake in the data,
contact the Herd Book Administrator.
Be sure to specify your pig's
AKKPS registration number in your message. The
Registrar will change the master database, and the on-line
database will be corrected the next time it is updated.
Why do some pigs have pictures?
The Online Herd Book can display pictures of the pigs in
the database, but the pictures do not come from the database.
Instead, you, the pig owner, can upload the pictures to the
system.
How can I get my pig's pictures on here?
To upload pictures, click on the
Upload Photos link which
appears at the bottom of all the Online Herd Book pages.
How do I upload more than one picture for my pig?
You can have up to three photos for each pig. One of these is
displayed large, and the other two are displayed smaller beneath
the first one. Once you are on the Photo Upload page, use the
"Photo" field to select which photo position (Top Large, Left
Hand Small, or Right Hand Small) you are uploading.
Why do only some of my pigs' names appear when I log on to upload photos?
If only some of your pigs appear when you log on, it is
most likely because you have more than one Member ID. For
example, you may have some pigs registered under your name,
and some under both yours and your spouse's name.
So if you can't find one of your pigs under one of your
Member IDs, try the other Member IDs. If you still can't find
all your pigs, please
contact the Herd Book Administrator.
Can I sort the search results by something other than the pig name?
Yes. Each column heading in the search result is actually a
link. If you click on a column heading, the search results will
be redisplayed, sorted by that column. If you are several pages
down in a multi-page result, the display starts over with page
one. The
symbol indicates which column the report is currently sorted by.
What does the Progeny column mean on the Progeny report?
The Progeny column in each row of the Progeny report shows the
number of Progeny of the pig in that row. If you click on
the number, you will get a Progeny report for that pig.
Note that this column only appears when you clicked the Progeny
button on a pig's pedigree page.
