Batch Year will default to the current year and Harvest Code will default to 11 – State managed fishery. Additionally, the Start Fish Ticket # field will default based on the Batch Year displayed.  Though defaulted, these fields can be modified to meet your coding requirements. As an example, if you have a ticket with a pre-printed fish ticket number for the previous year, simply change the default year.  The harvest code default can be easily modified, as well. 

Note

The auto batching page asks for the Batch Year, Office Code and Batch Number. Optionally, you can enter the Harvest Code, Fishing Period and Locale Code here.


Note

The Fish Ticket Numbers will default with a prefix of EYY (where YY is the current year), allowing you to enter only the six digit fish ticket number.  In this example, you would enter 181164 and then hit the enter key. The EYY on this ticket = E15 indicating a ticket from 2015.

In a few cases, a processor will fail to download the current year of tLandings and it generates fish tickets with the prior year date.  The ticket(s) should be batched with the current year’s fishery.  Just change the prefix on the ticket.  Remember to change the prefix back to the current year when you have completed processing of the ticket(s).  Again, enter the pre-printed fish ticket number, omitting the leading alpha letter (the E) and the year.
