Uploading sessions to NLIS using the Data Link mobile app

Send animal movements directly to NLIS whether you're out in the yards or back at home

Updated over a month ago

The Tru-Test Data Link mobile app helps you to comply with Australian NLIS requirements, by enabling you to send sessions directly to NLIS straight from your Android smartphone or Apple iPhone.

You can:

  • Send animals

  • Receive animals

  • Record animal status as Dead

Whether you are a:

  • Producer

  • Agent

  • Sale yard

📝 Recording animals as Dead requires the Data Link mobile app to be on version 3.4.0 or above.

Watch the video to learn how to:

  • Select a session to send

  • Select the transaction type for your movement

  • Enter in your NLIS and transaction details

  • View your transaction results

If you have more than one session you want to send, choose another session and repeat the steps above.

Afterwards, you can view sessions you've sent to NLIS by selecting the NLIS icon at the bottom of the screen in the All Sessions view.

📝 Only animal's with EIDs can be sent to NLIS.

Having trouble?

  • Check the farm settings in the Datamars Livestock web app. If your farm is not set to the correct country, NLIS will not be available.

  • Check that you are logged into Datamars Livestock first before registering a transaction. If you do not do this, the option to register a transaction will not be available.

  • If you have multiple farms, each farm must have its own unique NLIS number assigned. Make sure you are logged into the correct farm before performing a transaction.
