Hello,
I have a conveyor system and two boxes with different colors coming from my source. Box 1 comes with a percentage of 95% and box 2 with a percentage of 5%. I want the yellow boxes 1 go the left conveyor and the blue boxes 2 go the right conveyor. What do I have to do?

Don't use the color directly as the decision value for routing. Use a label instead and do both, setting the color and routing the box based on the label value. There is a picklist option "Set Labl and Color".

You will need a picklist option template color by case to get wished colors for your items. It is a visual option.
You can test if the color is yellow and route accordingly on a decision point arrival trigger:
