      Grow Sales | How Do I Create a Metrc Item to Match my BLAZE Product?

      In BLAZE you can create Products for more than just compliance. A product can be created for non-cannabis items such as Preroll Wrappers, Labels, O2 packs, and more. As a result, BLAZE does not automatically synchronize all Products to Metrc as Items.

      To synchronize a Product to Metrc it must have a matching Metrc category. 

      • In BLAZE there is a hierarchy of Categories, Products, and Packages.
      • A Package is your finished good. It is made from a Product which is a definition such as: True OG Prerolls (1g). The Products are assigned to Categories which in this case would be Prerolls.
      • For cannabis categories, those categories have a corresponding Metrc Category to map your internal category to the pre-defined list in Metrc that is created by your state. 

      Once you have a BLAZE Product you can synchronize this Product with Metrc to create a Metrc Item. 

      Let's walk through this. 

       

      1. First, you will want to synchronize Metrc categories with BLAZE as they periodically change. Go to Compliance > Metrc Category. This will initially be blank, hit Resync.

      Wait 2-3 minutes and then refresh the web page. This step could take a bit depending on how quickly Metrc is operating. Once completed you will see the categories populated.

      8. Choose the Product you want to use to create a Metrc item.

      • The category should autofill after selection.
      • If it is a Metrc category that requires a Strain, then an additional field for Strain will be presented.
      • Begin typing your strain name in this field to search.
      • Click Save.
