Fetch farms and animals from the Finnish animal health registers into Provet, and let Provet report your treatments to the registers. Production Animal Functions (Hyötyeläintoiminnot) connects Provet to the registers of Eläinten terveys ETT ry: Naseva for cattle and Sikava for pigs. Production Animal Functions with Naseva and Sikava is available only for clinics in Finland.

With Production Animal Functions, you can:

To use Production Animal Functions, you need:

If a required custom field is missing, contact your clinic administrator or Provet support. For more information about custom fields, see Create a Custom Field.

Production Animal Functions has its own page. On the Production Animal Functions page, you fetch register data, follow up data transfers, set up subsidies and create reports. To open the Production Animal Functions page:

The Production Animal Functions page opens in a new browser tab. The top of the page shows your clinic name and your user name.

The Production Animal Functions button is a custom integration button. The name and the place of a custom integration button can differ between clinics, so look for the button that opens Production Animal Functions.

The Production Animal Functions page has five tabs:

To go back to Provet, use the browser tab you came from. To log out of the Production Animal Functions page, select Kirjaudu ulos.

Production Animal Functions uses your Naseva and Sikava credentials to fetch register data and to send treatment information. You save the credentials once. To save your Naseva or Sikava credentials:

Production Animal Functions saves your credentials. To start a fetch, go to the Naseva/Sikava -poiminta tab.

Naseva passwords are long, so many users copy and paste them. When you paste a password, check that you did not copy a space at the start or at the end. To see the password you entered, select the eye button under the password field.

Eläinten terveys ETT ry issues the Naseva and Sikava credentials and the register permissions. To get Naseva or Sikava credentials, contact Eläinten terveys ETT ry.

Fetching (poiminta) creates clients and patients in Provet from the register data, so you do not have to enter the information yourself. The animal record includes details such as the birth or EU ID and the holding ID.

To fetch a whole municipality, you add the municipality to a fetch queue. Provet then fetches once a day and adds new farms and animals automatically. If you remove a municipality from the queue, the farms and animals already fetched stay in Provet. To fetch a single farm, you start the fetch from the client page in Provet.

Every fetch uses your credentials on the Asetukset & tiedonsiirto tab. The farm must also give you permission in the register to view its data and to report treatments. The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) requires this permission.

A Naseva fetch creates the cattle farms of a municipality as clients in Provet, and their cattle as patients. The Naseva fetch repeats once a day until you remove the municipality from the queue. To fetch cattle and cattle farms from Naseva:

Provet adds the municipality to the queue. The table shows when the fetch last ran, and how many farms and cattle the fetch found. To fetch more than one municipality, repeat the steps.

If the Naseva fetch does not finish, check your Naseva credentials and your permissions in Naseva. Provet tries again on the next daily run. If the Naseva fetch still does not finish, contact Provet support.

A Sikava fetch creates the pig farms of a municipality as clients in Provet. The Sikava fetch does not create individual pigs as patients. The Sikava fetch repeats once a day until you remove the municipality from the queue. To fetch pig farms from Sikava:

Provet adds the municipality to the queue. The table shows when the fetch last ran, and how many farms the fetch found.

If the Sikava fetch does not finish, check your Sikava credentials and your permissions in Sikava. Provet tries again on the next daily run. If the Sikava fetch still does not finish, contact Provet support.

You can fetch the cattle of a single farm from Naseva on the client page in Provet. The client record must contain a farm ID. To fetch the cattle of one farm from Naseva:

A window confirms that the fetch has started. The fetch runs in the background, so you can close the window.

The Naseva fetch button is a custom integration button, so the name of the button can differ between clinics. If your clinic has more than one custom integration button on the client page, Provet shows the buttons in a drop-down menu.

A client created by a fetch has the Naseva client tag next to the client balance. The Remarks field on the client page shows when the fetch created the client.

If the window says that the farm ID is missing, add the farm ID to the client record and start the fetch again. If animals are missing after the fetch, check your permissions in Naseva and the permissions that the farm has given you.

Provet sends the treatment information from farm visits to Naseva for cattle and to Sikava for pigs. You do not have to report the treatments in the registers manually. The transfer starts when you finalize the invoice for the farm visit. You are responsible for the reporting, so check the transfers regularly.

To send the treatment information, Provet needs:

Provet sends a medicine to the register only when the Usage type of the medicine on the farm visit is Administered. Medicines with another usage type, for example Dispensed, stay in Provet only. The ETT code and the withdrawal period of a medicine are optional for the transfer.

To follow up the treatment information sent to Naseva and Sikava:

The ETT-tiedonvälitys tab lists the medicines sent to Naseva and Sikava. A successful transfer has the status 'Siirto onnistunut'. A failed transfer has the status 'Siirto ETT-virhe' and a red mark. To read the error, hold the pointer over the status.

A transfer fails when required information is missing, or when the register already has an entry for that day. To fix a failed transfer, correct the information in Provet, or enter the information directly in Naseva. If you cannot find the cause, contact Provet support.

You set up and invoice municipal subsidies on the Subventiot tab of the Production Animal Functions page. For the steps, see Calculate Municipal Subsidies, Invoice the Municipality and Create Visit Reports in Finland.
