For auditors
Every answer opens onto the records behind it.
The checklist follows your form, item by item, and an answer links to a record it was worked out from. From there, follow the batch to every animal it went into and who gave each dose.

Every answer
Every answer says what it couldn’t see. An answer the feedlot can’t work out reads n/a, an item with nothing behind it reads No record, and a record with no date reads Due, never Ready.
Veterinary medicines
A zero on a check is only as good as the population behind it. What these count never reaches the check, so it is unexamined rather than clean.

Reading this pack
Each item is a line of the auditor's checklist, in the auditor's numbering, against the NFAS Rules and Standards (June 2025). Its standing is the one the NFAS page shows, worked out from the feedlot's records on 09 Oct 2026. Figures run from the external audit of 18 Mar 2026.
The standings
Ready: evidence current through the next audit cluster. Before cluster: current today, lapses before the cluster closes. Due: wants a fresh record within ninety days, or has no date to count from. Attention: the records name a gap. Overdue: past its date. No record: nothing filed. Observed: the auditor observes it on the day. n/a: not computed on this feedlot.
After the audit
The CAR you raise comes back filled in, with its evidence. Containment, root cause, corrective and preventive action and verification sit on one finding with the files that show them, on a thirty-day target.

NFAS & auditFAQ
Questions auditors ask.
Is the checklist in my form’s numbering?
Yes. It holds the 132 items, 1.1.1 to 7.1.2, against the NFAS Rules and Standards (June 2025 edition), and every row carries your question in full.
Can a batch be traced after a residue detection?
Yes. A batch opens onto every animal it was given to, with who gave each dose and the pen each animal is in now, and the list exports for a recall or a consignee notice.
What does a program or EUCAS auditor see?
The same records. Each head carries its HGP status and how it was set, and every load is checked as it leaves against its order’s days on feed, withholding and HGP-free promise.
Offtake & dispatchCan you show me the hospital pen on a past day?
Yes, for any of the last 90 days. Pen replay rebuilds the head in each pen at the close of the day you pick.
How is heat load worked out?
Hour by hour, from the feedlot’s own weather station, against the threshold in its heat load risk assessment (3.6.2). A day counts only when enough of its hours can be worked out.
