Why do I need a group code and how can I get one?

The group code is only applicable in the CFT.


The group code is entered under the tab “my projects” and unlocks certain member-only features such as data export unlimited assessments. If you think you should have access to member-only features, please ask the contact in your organisation responsible for Cool Farm Alliance matters to share the group code with you. 


The functionalities associated to a group code can be:
  • Sets the limit number of assessments above the free five assessments.
  • Export: provides the ability to export results of your made assessments as Excel file.
  • Supplier Section: Functionality to share specific information and documents with your suppliers on a ‘landing page’.  Only those with the relevant group code can see the information, by clicking on the code under ‘my projects’.
  • Custom fertiliser production (for advanced users only): the ability to add a fertiliser with its own embedded production emissions value, rather than using one of the standard values in the CFT.
