How to record a traceable harvest
Goal
Record what was harvested, from which plot, and in how many containers and kilograms so that it can enter traceable inventory.
Steps
Open Traceability > Daily Harvest. Review the harvest days in the active crop season, including their date, person responsible, container totals and status.
Choose New day. Select the crop season, farm, date and person responsible. Add a row for each crop or variety, specifying the source plot, container type and number of containers. Estimated kilograms are calculated from container capacity. Add another variety when needed.
Result
The harvest day is saved. Choosing Save and record intake also adds the produce to traceable inventory, ready for subsequent movements or deliveries.
Common mistakes
- Choosing Save only when you intend to add inventory. That saves the harvest record, but intake still needs to be recorded.
- Selecting a container with the wrong capacity. Estimated weight is container count multiplied by capacity, so an incorrect container type gives an incorrect inventory weight.
