Introduction
This wiki page provides a brief explanation of how to harvest items from a collection on another repository system.
Requirements

Step 1 - Create a collection to receive harvested items
Go to the community on your repository system that will host the collection and create the collection as normal.
Step 2 - Configure the collection for harvesting
Now select the collection as a collection that will harvest items from another repository.
See screenshot below.
Step 3 - Begin harvesting
Click on the "Start" harvest button.
Step 4 - Schedule automatic harvesting updates
Go to the "control panel" and select the automatic harvesting of the collections so that the collections are properly synchronised in future after the initial harvest.
See screenshot below.
