Departure

Functionality Departure is used when an animal leaves the shelter for various reasons: returned to the owner, adopted, etc. Each animal's departure is appropriately recorded.

We have prepared an example for you on how to record animal departure data in shelters. The data is managed in the tab Shelter, located in the menu  Veterinary | Codebooks |​ Owner and animal codebook.

TIP Read more detailed information about the program's forms in PANTHEON VET Guide, in the chapter Movements.
