### Base Program

- Updated the sire files for UK and Germany.
- Added a safeguard to prevent an issue where animal records could be corrupted if you edited an event and DairyComp processed incoming client transactions at the same time.
- Fixed a problem where redirected report outputs were not created properly if the option to disable all printing was enabled.
- We increased the number of sires in the USA sire file to support all sires born in the last 20 years, which is now 20,000 proven sires.
- Fixed an issue where the `SUM `command was not properly grouping if an Item Type #133 (Gender) item was used.

### Integrations

- GEA DairyNet: Added ability to send 4-digit pen numbers to GEA DairyNet.
- NEDAP: The PULSE Nedap item for heat time (ACTIM) is now being properly created as an Item Type #23 (Date) item.
- All Parlors: We now create and store two new items:
  - Last Parlor Visit Date (LPVD): The date when the cow was last milked
  - Last Parlor Visit Shift (LPVS): The milking shift number for that date
    With these two items, along with the existing START (start time) item, you can now create reports to find cows missed for milking, the percentage of the milking herd that went through the parlor, etc.
- Germany: Fixed a problem where sometimes the test dates were not properly imported for a new herd created from German load files.
