Batch Year will default to the current year and Harvest Code will be defaulted to 11, traditional 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. 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.
To begin the auto-batching process, enter batching information:

There are two buttons at the bottom of the page: Batch and Validate
