Invoice (B) displays much more detail in regards to the feed and cost summary including performance values and cattle movement breakdowns. Feedlot invoices can be generated by a Group ID or by ownership. Owner invoices will display group by group information, as well as a total expense to the owner. In order to generate accurate invoices, feed prices, added costs and yardage must be correct.
