--- title: PULSE Update - November 2025 slug: pl-check-links/pulse-update-november-2025 docTags: createdAt: 2026-02-23T07:45:23.959Z --- ENHANCEMENTDC Unlimited ONLY Protect your herd data with PULSE offline mode alerts! If your DC305 DairyComp 305 - VAS Dairy Management Software connection goes down, PULSEnow warns you and specifies the actions you need to take. This ensures you don't inadvertently edit outdated animal records and keeps your PULSE data current. PULSE detects three different offline modes to safeguard your herd data. See [Offline DC305 Integration](docId\:mz1HWW-WTJZpVjHO5pzdt) to learn how to address warnings and make sure your latest animal records are live in PULSE and the mobile app. ![](https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/nJF4zWupSkBsBDvDoXg2X_25-nov-dc305offline.png) ![](https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/CenpdD_OZhqT3aIx_eQJh_25-nov-embryo-delete.png) ENHANCEMENTEmbryo management improvements: Managing your embryos in PULSE just got easier! Check out the latest improvements:  - You can now delete transferred embryos and choose to either return them to inventory or discard them. This helps to correct mistakes if the wrong embryo was selected during a TRANSFER event. See [Delete Transferred Embryos](docId:8groFckI5s5gIRVwAusTt) to learn more. - If an animal was BRED within 10 days, TRANSFER events cannot be added and PULSE flags the animal in an error message:  ::Image[]{src="https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/4PMAyKwmq2nqGSmVRdLu0_embryo-error-bred.png" size="69" isUploading="false" initialPath="../../../Resources/Images/Platform/dairycomp/embryo/embryo-error-bred.png" githubPath="Content/Resources/Images/Platform/dairycomp/embryo/embryo-error-bred.png" position="flex-start" showCaption="false" indent="2"} :::Paragraph{indent="1"} Be sure to check that the recipient animal is correct when you see the BRED error message. This and other built-in sanity checks protect your valuable investment and avoid wasting viable embryos. See [TRANSFER Event Sanity Checks](docId\:YeEvMvIEXLUwG7gjZw7HQ) for additional PULSE checks and other event details. ::: - You can now add stage 9 embryos (expanded and hatched blastocysts) to recipient animals. See [Requirements for Embryo Transfers](docId\:pN-WHCHsCFi_sh-kHY_cE) for additional requirements. ENHANCEMENTAdditional embryo details: PULSE now supports additional data for your embryos:  - Lab ID - Lab Embryo ID - Embryo Owner You can also filter your [Embryo Inventory](docId\:xR9mwX0K5T5_CET3py6sD), [Transferred Embryos](docId:8groFckI5s5gIRVwAusTt), and [Embryo Results](docId\:Y3EJa1dty94ecF0zvH-ET) pages using the new fields. See [Embryo Management](docId\:PWG1hyw0nEJEX9on95VzQ) to learn more about managing your embryos in PULSE. ![](https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/o-k-zwgVT-U3yF31A-0Z__25-aug-pbossreports2.png) ![](https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/LopX2uNDVHsgFwNCpuYm9_25-nov-embryo.png) NEW FEATUREParlorBoss Reports are now available in PULSE! Dairies with a ParlorBossDairyComp integration can now view reports on their parlor's efficiency and animal identification accuracy. Use the reports to track and analyze specific parlor performance details and help your team evaluate animal prep routines, milking equipment attachment methods, and other parlor activities for potential improvement opportunities. :::hint{type="warning"} **IMPORTANT: **ParlorBoss version 2.8.9 or higher must be installed and integrated with DairyComp at your dairy for reporting to be available. ::: :::ExpandableHeading ### Click here for a full list of available reports!

ENHANCEMENTNedapSmartSight integration now available! VAS is committed to partnering with other technology leaders in the dairy industry, and we are excited to announce the general availability of NedapSmartSight integration.  [SmartSight](https://nedap-livestockmanagement.com/smartsight/) powered by Nedap is an AI-powered camera system that helps detect lameness in cows during milking. A consistent, objective, and automatic tool for creating a lame score on a cow at every milking. These scores help generate actionable insights, including prioritized trim lists and monitoring recovery after trimming. See [Nedap SmartSight Overview](docId\:eNJIkGycVMhN8p9O3IDyi) to learn more. ![](https://api.qa.archbee.co/api/optimize/zICxj0dnLereb6UUrBA3-/cYaHX121KAtaKxALkFjPt_25-nov-smartsight.png) ## Other Improvements & Bug Fixes  - FeedComp on PULSE user interface improvements: The Feedings page and Feed History Report are now more intuitive and easier to use.
