      Via the Sensorial History section


      By following these steps you can group your Samples via the Sensorial History section:

      Example: You get an Offer Sample. First, you need to add this Sample with all the necessary information to Cropster. If you accept the Sample from the supplier, you will receive a Pre-shipment Sample.

      1. Complete the steps 1-4 written above.
      2. To add that Pre-shipment Sample to Cropster, enter the Sensorial History section of the related Offer sample.
      3. Click + Add Sample to create a new Sample that is automatically linked to the Offer Sample.
      4. After the Pre-shipment Sample, you will receive the Arrival from the buyer. Like the Offer Sample and the Pre-shipment Sample, the Arrival belongs in the same Sample Group and can be added the same way.
      5. It will also be one lot and that you will move into your Inventory.
      6. Once you've moved one Sample of the group to the Inventory, Inventory will show your complete Sample History. 

      Via the Samples overview page


      By following these steps you can group Samples via the Samples overview page:

      1. Complete the steps 1-2 written above.
      2. Select the Samples by clicking on the respective checkboxes.
        💡 You can also filter for the Samples you would like to group:
