AMTS.Feedbank Manager (FBM)
.FBM streamlines the process of importing data from the feed mill; updating feeds, formulas, and pricing; and creating and sharing Feed banks with other .Pro users.
FBM eliminates redundant data entry and increased potential for data entry errors by electronically sharing data between Mill Programs (BestMix™, Brill Formulation® and Format™), analytical lab analyses, and AMTS.Cattle.Pro.
Additionally, .FBM can be used to control security settings for .Pro feed banks and individual feeds, track which users change or create a feed, and the date the feed values are changed. .FBM can also import, create, and export feed mixes or blends.
Benefits to Mill

Creates and updates AMTS Feedbanks, providing the nutritionists with up-to-date prices and nutrient compositions.

Benefits to the Nutritionist
