View Reports
Use FeedComp reports to review feeding history, monitor errors, track ingredient usage, and analyze feed performance across your dairy. These reports help you verify completed feedings, identify trends, and spot issues that may impact accuracy, cost, or efficiency.
Use the Feed History report to view historical information and other relevant details for your feedings, including missed amounts, feeder names, aborts, and acknowledge amounts.
While high-level feeding statuses and summaries are available across platforms, the web report provides full visibility into feeding lifecycles and step-level operator actions — such as skips, ignores, manual advances, and overnight pauses — to help distinguish between operational decisions and system errors.
💡 Tip: Check the "Reset Time" Gap
If you completed loads offline yesterday but didn't sync until after your farm's "Reset Time""Reset Time" (e.g., 1:00 AM), those loads might not appear on today's dashboard immediately after syncing.
Before troubleshooting a "Missing" load:
- Go to Reports -> Feeding History.
- Check the date the feeding actually occurred.
- If the data is there, your load is safe! The web dashboard may just need additional time to reconcile the offline data with the current date's report.
Options to search and filter the Feed History report are available at the top of the page. Follow the guidelines below when working with the Feed History report:
- Click Filters at the top left of the page to limit the data that is displayed. The Filters side panel opens.

- Paused Feedings: The total number of feedings that were paused. This applies to overnight loads where the operator selected "Resume Tomorrow."
- Aborted Feedings: The total number of feedings that were aborted by the operator, or automatically due to an overnight load that was never resumed.
- Missing Feedings: The total number of feedings that were missed.
- Incomplete Feedings: The total number of feedings that were started but failed to complete due to processing errors, unhandled sync issues, or missing required loads.
Click the down arrow 
to expand a row and view all feedings that were scheduled on that day. All of your dairy’s current feedings scheduled on the date expanded are listed on the report, and the following information is displayed for each feeding:
- Feeding Name: The name of the feeding. You can click the name of the feeding to open the Feeding Details side panel and view more information. See View Feeding Details to learn more.

- Premix: Indicates that the feeding was a premix. A premix is the same as a scheduled feeding, except you'll select a load size instead of selecting pens. A premix isn't like a normal recipe mix that is dropped to a sequence of pens; instead, a premix is batched for use in other recipes. See Recipes and Batch Feedings to learn more.
- Filler Load: Indicates that the feeding was a filler load. A filler load is type of weighback collection that reuses leftover feed from the previous day and adds it into a scheduled feeding for the current day.

- Paused: Feeding was paused during an overnight load when the operator selected "Resume Tomorrow."
- Aborted: Feeding was explicitly aborted before completion by the operator, or an overnight load was not resumed on its scheduled feed date.

IMPORTANT: Make sure you sync the app data before manually completing a feeding from the Feed History report. Some feedings may display Incomplete until the data is fully synced. This helps prevent losing or overwriting data that is already saved in the app.
You can mark feedings complete directly in the report table or when viewing feeding details in the side panel. When you manually mark a feeding as complete, the following occurs:
- Actual amounts are updated: For any ingredient or pen with an actual amount of zero, the system sets the actual amount to match the target amount.
- Status changes: The feeding status updates to Manually Completed. Manually completing a feeding fills in missing values for reporting purposes without altering any recorded historical data. See feeding statuses to learn more.
💡TIP: To avoid losing data, always sync the FeedComp mobile app before manually completing a feeding. This ensures any data already saved on the device is uploaded to the system first.
- From the report table: Click the down arrow to expand a row, and then click Mark as Completed to set the status of the feeding to Completed.
- From the side panel: Click on a Feeding Name in the table to open the side panel, and then click Mark as Completed to set the status of the feeding to Completed.

Indicates that the feeding was completed as scheduled.
-
Indicates that the feeding was started but not completed.
-
Indicates that the feeding was missing (not started before the daily reset).
If your dairy runs feedings that span across midnight (starting one day and finishing the next), you may notice a delay in how the feeding is included in this report:
- Visibility: The Feeding History report defaults to the current calendar day, so a load that spans the overnight reset will be included in the next day's report.
- Paused Status & "Resume Tomorrow": When an operator selects "Resume Tomorrow" during an overnight load, the feeding is assigned a Paused status.
- Overnight Pause Separator: In the feeding details drawer, a visual separator labeled "SCHEDULED - OVERNIGHT LOAD" marks the exact point where feeding was paused.
- Finding the load: o view an overnight load, set your date filter to the feeding's scheduled feed date. The load displays under its original feed date once completed and synced. If an overnight load is not resumed on its scheduled feed date, its status automatically updates to Aborted.
