### Enhancements

- Added new Auto PREG Event option to quickly process some events on a VETFORM worklist: You now have the option to process some events on a VETFORM work list without having to enter multiple details. When you enable and configure the Auto PREG Event feature, you can easily move events with a PREG or CONF vet code to the **Done** tab just by scanning and tapping the animal in the **To Do** tab. Enable the **PCC: Auto PREG Event** option in DairyComp and configure the **Enable automatic PREG for defined VET Codes** setting in PCC to use this feature. See [Enable Auto PREG Event in PCC](docId\:EFxoOXB8u7Gq1w2j9WMUQ) for detailed setup instructions! Note that this feature requires DairyComp version 25.1 or later. (PCC-1322, PCC-1467)
- Created a Beta update channel for PCC versions that log updates: We created a secondary update channel to test new releases and to allow users to auto-download new PCC updates if they have a special logging version of PCC. (PCC-1433, PCC-1472, PCC-1456, PCC-1467)
- PCC now logs more device details to better diagnose any app issues: We now record a few more device and status details when transactions are built so we can better diagnose and resolve any device issues or identify older libraries that need to be updated. (PCC-1433, PCC-1472, PCC-1456, PCC-1467)
- Added a pen pick list when H is listed as an animal's pen during a protocol: If a protocol designates that an animal's pen is `H`, PCC now displays a pick list for pens. This update supports V8 cowfiles. (PCC-1441, PCC-1467)
- Improved how scanned animals are listed in an open VETFORM: When VETFORM is open and multiple animals are scanned, PCC now lists the animals in order of when they were last scanned. Previously, PCC listed the animals by ID number regardless of when they were scanned. (PCC-1281, PCC-1467)

### Bugs

- Fixed a worklists display issue: We fixed a display issue where PCC showed fewer columns in worklists if grid view was enabled. (PCC-1409, PCC-1467)
- Removed unnecessary lines from the transactions file: We resolved an issue where multiple repetitive lines of scan meta data were included in the transactions file. (PCC-1413, PCC-1467)
- PCC now correctly shows settings for vet code text-to-speech (TTS) sounds: Previously, we had an issue where PCC did not correctly display the setting for vet code TTS sounds. The issue has been resolved. (PCC-1471, PCC-1467)
- Resolved an issue where PCC played two sounds at once: We fixed an issue where PCC would play two sounds at the same time for one animal: the BUZZ sound and the VETC custom sound. (PCC-1454, PCC-1467)
- Disabled the Enter button when entering breeding details: We resolved an issue where you could press **Enter** on your keyboard to advance to the next step without entering sire details. Now, when you enter breeding details, you can only advance by using the pick list button to select a sire. (PCC-1418, PCC-1467)
- Fixed an issue where the app would fail during FRESH event entry: We fixed a localization issue for FRESH events that affected German and Russian localizations. (PCC-1493, PCC-1467)
