Overview 

This article explains how to set up Processes using Cropster Origin. Processes outline the different phases that coffee experiences, transforming it from its raw form to the finished product that is ready for consumption.

Creating Processes consists of two main steps:

1. Defining the Process method
2. Configuring the Yield Factor

Defining the Process method

1. Log in to the online platform C-sar. 
2. Navigate to Origin on the main menu bar and select Processes. 
3. Click +Add process on the top right side of the page.
   

   

4. Enter the following details:
   • Name
   • Processing method
   • Received state
   • Stored state
   • Determine the Yield factor between states
   • Notes
   • Stages
5. Select the Processing method.

Configuring the Yield Factor
 

1. Complete the steps 1-5 written above.
2. Select the coffee state for each time the amount is recorded:
   • Received state: The phase when the coffee reaches the processing facility (mill).
     • Cherry
     • Dry cherry
     • Wet green
     • Green raw
   • Stored state: The phase when the coffee has been partially processed.
     • Cherry
     • Dry cherry
     • Wet green
     • Green raw
       

       

        

3. Determine the Yield factor between states:
   • If the received state matches the stored state, then there will be one Yield factor: Received-Green.
   • If there are three states, then there will be two Yield factors: Received-Stored and Stored-Green.
   • Yield factors must be expressed as a relationship between an Input amount to an Output amount. The output must be less than the input.
   • You may choose different Units to measure the amounts.
4. (Optional) Add Notes for further clarification or additional information. 
5. You can also add Stages by clicking on +Add stage. 
6. Click on Create process to submit.
