Daily Animal Care Medical: Vaccine Missing:
“Although the goal is to
vaccinate every animal
upon intake, this report tells
us which animals were
missed (could have been
because the animal was
fractious at the time of
intake, too busy, etc.)”
Remember, this report has
the multi-select parameter
for the Vaccine Type.
