Account Setup

Overview

Sign Up Process

Note - The application is currently available by invitation only. The process below can only be facilitated by StockManager personnel at the current time. Please see the following page to sign up for the waiting list for the application. We hope to remove this restriction in Q2 2019 as we expand our local and remote support capabilities

​

Overview​

​

To get started with your free 60 day trial of StockManager, you need to setup an account at stockmanager.co.nz. Once the account is setup, you can setup farms, assign them to the account and then setup as many tablets as you would like for each farm.

​

The majority of users will be setup with a single account, farm and tablet but the system also accommodates having multiple farms and tablets associated with a single account. This enables the ability to view consolidated data across multiple farms from the web portal - e.g. total counts, counts by stock class, average weight by stock class, etc.

Sign Up Process

​

This process is completed on the StockManager website by:

1. Going to stockmanager.co.nz and select SIGNUP button. Note: Available by invitation only at this time. Button is not currently present.

2. This will open a wizard to walk you through the sign up process

3. The first page outlines that the Android tablet application only supports specific tablets, auto-drafters, EID readers and weigh indicators provides a link to the supported devices to check before you proceed with account sign up. The compatibility list can be found here.

4. The next page is where you enter the required information to establish an account

5. The next page outlines a summary of the features of a StockManager subscription, subscription fees, terms and conditions and privacy policy. It also provides a tool to estimate your monthly subscription fees after your trial period.

   • Note - the current subscription option is based on active animal count in the system each month. We are​ currently working on fixed annual subscription plans offered through local vets and consultants. As these are finalized, we will update this page with these options to choose from.

6. The next page is where you enter your payment details (limited to credit cards). This step will validate your credit card but will not bill you until 30 days after the end of your 60 day free trial. 

7. The next page is where you enter the details for your first farm. This is a critical step for the Android tablet application to function correctly. Each tablet application is locked to a single farm and only the assigned farm manager has the ability to set this up after they have completed the sign up process on the tablet. Once the information is completed, this will automatically send an email to the farm manager specified. Once they click on the provided link, they will be brought to a screen on the web portal where they can finish their account setup (if new) and accept the invitation.  

8. The last page outlines the next steps to get your tablet setup and start using it. The first step of this is to download the StockManager Android tablet application and install it on your tablet. Click here to get details on this process.
