How to log milk on DairyLogs

Log daily milk in DairyLogs with the spreadsheet-style Add records form for morning, noon, and evening litres per cow.

Milk → Add records is the daily parlor entry screen. Enter morning, noon, and evening litres per cow in a spreadsheet-style grid; day totals update as you type. Saved sessions appear under Milk → Records.

Before you start

Animals must already exist under Herd.
You need milk write permission on the farm.

Steps

Open Add records: Go to Milk → Add records (sidebar under Milk, or /dashboard/milk/add).
Enter session yields: For each animal, type morning, noon, and/or evening litres. Mark discarded volume when milk cannot enter the tank. Confirm the day total looks right.
Save and verify: Save the day’s entries, then open Milk → Records or Overview to confirm sessions and animals milked.

Tips

Log every session the same day—late backfills make dashboard “today” cards misleading.
Skip or zero animals that were not milked rather than inventing yields.

02Can I log only morning milk?

Yes. Enter the sessions you completed and leave others empty. Day totals sum whatever sessions you recorded.
