Editing a journal entry

You can edit journal entries from two different places.

To edit a journal entry from the Animal Journal Entries page, open the journal entry list and click the Edit icon for the journal entry of the animal you want to edit.  From this list, you can only edit one entry at a time.

From the animal's detail page (Animals > Animal list), select Journal Entries, then click the Edit icon for the entry you want to edit.  In this example, we are selecting an entry for Baby, the animal from the previous examples.

More on Animal Journal Reminders

When you use the optional Reminder Date and Due Date Feilds you are using this feature as a reminder for an upcoming task that you also plan on journaling. 

For example, I may create a journal where I have taken my dog to the vet.  I would have created a journal entry for that visit.  However,  in this example, I know I have a follow up due to two weeks.  I can use the Due Date as a reminder of that appointment.  Furthermore, I can use the Reminder Date for when I want a reminder.  For example, the day before.  

Another thing often used when creating reminders are vaccines.  So, the Due Date is the date the vaccine is next due to be given.  The Reminder Date is the date you want to be reminded to give the next vaccine (usually a week or two before the due date so they can make plans to administer next vaccine)

titleImportant Note

Please note that Animal Journal Reminders are ONLY sent to the creator of the journal and cannot be assigned to anyone else.
