Once your catalogue is received, it is placed into a work queue. Please allow for at least 7-10 working days for your CUSTOMISED or FULL DESIGN catalogue to be processed. Standard catalogues will be turned around within 3 days, provided all required information is received and animal registrations are in order. Where does my catalogue sit in terms of Standard, Customised and Full Design?
Standard Catalogue – You have your catalogue listed online, you receive either a CSV data extract or a PDF with standard animal information (e.g. no shading of EBVs, no additional animal information). The standard catalogue PDF is automatically generated from angus.tech therefore no additions or changes can be made. Usually produced within 1-3 working days. Customised Catalogue – You have your catalogue listed online and you receive a PDF of your sale lots that are in your selected/designed template layout, with alterations or inclusions to the specific template (e.g. shading of EBVs, additional animal information, two or three generation pedigree). As there are additional features to your template layout, regardless of if you have been using this layout for a period of time it is still classed as a ‘customised catalogue’ as this requires manual processing, and it is not available through the standard catalogue service. Usually produced within 7-10 working days. Full Design Catalogue – You have your catalogue listed online and you receive a catalogue PDF that contains all information, made into a physical catalogue ready to be printed. As there are additional features to your catalogue layout or updates/changes have been made, regardless of if you have been using this layout for a period of time it is still classed as a ‘full design catalogue’ as this requires manual processing. Usually produced within 7-10 working days. Observing when our peak production periods are in the lead up to Autumn and Spring sales, it is important that members looking to use the Angus Australia sale catalogue service provide the necessary information for their catalogue with ample time prior to their desired TransTasman Cattle Evaluation (TACE) analysis run. It is recommended that members provide their sale catalogue information at least 7 days prior to the relevant TACE run to ensure that your catalogue is produced within the relevant time period advised for catalogue production. You can find the 2023 TACE Analysis Dates by scanning the QR code below.
