How to update or delete information for a kill upload

Use this guide to help you update or delete information from a previous kill upload using a CSV file.

For tagged animals, the upload process will attempt to match the previous kill record on the basis of the RFID or the Visual Tag ID (transaction ID and submitted record sequence are not required). For Untagged animals, the upload process will attempt to match the previous kill record using the NAIT Transaction Identifier and Submitted Record Sequence Number (these fields are mandatory for untagged animal records).

Your CSV file will need to include all of the column headings, in the correct order. This includes headings for optional columns you are leaving blank.

ColumnHeadingFormat
ANAIT Transaction IdentifierThe NAIT identifier of the original batch of kill records (mandatory for untagged animals, not required for tagged animals).
BSubmitted Record Sequence NumberThe sequence number of the corresponding record in the original batch of kill records (mandatory for untagged animals, but not required for tagged animals).
CAnimal TypeCattle = C
Deer = D
DKill DateDate of death.
Date information must be in a recognisable format, e.g. dd/mm/yyyy, dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm:ss, yyyy-mm-dd etc.
Please note any time component will not be stored in the database.
ESlaughterAnimal slaughtered = True
Animal died but no slaughtered = False
FNAIT Number Sent FromNAIT number of location animal sent from.
GMeat Processor NAIT NumberNAIT number of location of animal death.
HNAIT RFIDThis is the unique 16 character code that relates to the NAIT tag. This information is provided by tag manufacturers or can be read with a scanner. It does not have to be provided if a NAIT Visual ID is provided. Examples that will be accepted include:
00000 0 982 000196588496
942 000002422333
982 000161531687
9.82E+14
0982 000190869343
INAIT Visual Tag NumberThis is the information printed on the outside of the tag. It does not have to be provided if a NAIT RFID is provided. The number must already be registered to an animal in order to update the animal's details.

JExternal Record IDSubmitters reference number. This is optional but is useful to correlate with error messages in the error download CSV.
KDisposal MethodIf slaughter is true use one of these codes:
Home kill = A
Disposed at NAIT location = B
Meat processor for human consumption = C
Meat processor for pet food = D
Animal rendering facility = E
If slaughter is false use one of these codes:
Disposed at NAIT location = B
Animal rendering facility = E
This must be supplied if a date of death is entered. It must match one of the values in the NAIT system depending on whether slaughter is true of false.
L - AICarcase Disease Status 1 - 24This can only be supplied if date of death is supplied. Use one of these codes:
Contam = CON
Bruising (Fore) = BRF
Bruising (Middle) = BRM
Bruising (Hind) = BRH
Wound = WND
Egran = EGR
Peritonitis = PER
Pleurisy = PLE
ISL = ISL
Sarco = SAR
Pyogenic = PYO
Arthritis = ART
Septicaemia = SEP
Emaciated = EMA
Zantho = XAN
Neoplasm = NEO
Facial Eczema = FEX
Tuberculosis = TUB
Condem = CDM
Actino = ACT
Colour = COL
Bad Innoc = BIN
Liver Fluke = LFL
Johnes = JOH
No Defect = NOD
