New & Improved Features
- Redesigned Invoice Creation (In Development)
We are updating the invoice process so you can:
- Add line-item charges for animal heads and customers
- Adjust price per pound and slaughter fees
- Clearly display customer-selected extras and trim options
- Choose who pays processing fees
- Flat Fee Extras (In Development)
Processors will soon be able to add extras with a flat fee, not just by the pound, making billing more flexible.
- Producer Portal (Testing)
Producers now have their own login experience where they can:
- View and manage their jobs
- Use a “Schedule New Job” button
- See pages and features tailored for producers
- Customizable Capabilities Management
Processors will now be able to define, edit, and manage their own categories, subcategories, and cuts—giving you more flexibility in how you set up your cutsheets.
- Kill Sheet Updates (Prioritized)
We plan to update the Kill Sheet to better fit processor needs, including:
- Showing farm names
- Adding a species column
- Keeping V/N (voluntary/normal) columns without circling any
- Adding five blank rows for extra entries
- Kill & Chill Functionality (Prioritized)
A new option will allow you to handle “Kill & Chill” jobs directly in your settings.
If you have questions about these updates or want to learn more, please contact the Farmshare Customer Success team.
Bug Fixes
All items below have been fixed and released unless otherwise noted.
- Lamb/Goat Blocking Not Working
We fixed an issue where blocking certain cuts for lamb and goat wasn’t working due to duplicate entries in the system.
- Hog, Lamb & Goat Capabilities Not Showing
A recent update caused hog, lamb, and goat processing options to disappear for some users. We resolved this by improving how roles are handled in the system.
- Specifications Not Saving on Duplicate Cutsheets
There was a problem where custom specifications weren’t saving when duplicating a cutsheet. This has now been fixed.
- Chat Link in Email Led to “Page Not Found”
Some users received broken links in their email notifications for chat. The links have been corrected and now work as expected.
- Certain Blocks Between Cuts Not Saving
Similar to the lamb/goat blocking issue, duplicate entries were causing problems blocking certain beef cuts. This has been resolved.
- Adding Cutsheet to Head Without Contact Not Saving
Processors found a way to add a cutsheet to an animal without assigning a contact, which led to data not saving. We are currently investigating this issue.
- Producers Unable to Load Cutsheet Catalogue
Some producers were unable to access the cutsheet catalogue due to role-handling problems. This has been fixed. - Custom Cutsheet Not Selected on Load
When reloading a cutsheet with a custom option selected, the system wasn’t displaying the correct selection. This has been fixed.
