When entering animals that you purchase, be sure to use the Buy New Animal action. This action allows you to enter the purchase information at the time of creating the animal into your database. It happens though, people forget. So if you need to add it later, here’s how:
- Double click on the animal you want to correct.
- Select the Event History tab.
- Select the Birth event from the list on the left.
- Change the value for the Owner entry in the panel on the right to the owner you are purchasing the animal from (you can use the quick add button to add the owner if not entered yet).
- Click the paper-clip to update the entry on the animal.
- Save the animal.
- Now, from the Actions control on the toolbar, select Buy Animal.
- Enter the purchase information and click OK.
- Note the new entry in the Event History.
- Save the animal, You are done.
