Retail | How do I Receive a Compliance Transfer in BLAZE?
The Compliance Transfers section allows you to streamline your intake process by creating a purchase order directly from pending Metrc transfers. By using this workflow, you can seamlessly receive inventory and link it to the corresponding BLAZE product profiles.
Prerequisites
-
App: BLAZE Web Dashboard
-
Requirement: You must first accept and receive the incoming transfer manifest directly within your Metrc account. Once received in Metrc, the manifest will sync to BLAZE.
- Products in Metrc measured in pounds (LBs) are not officially supported nor recommended in BLAZE.

Understanding Compliance Transfer Tabs
When navigating to Compliance > Compliance Transfers, you will see several tabs to help manage your transfers:
| Tab | Description |
| Incoming | Where your Metrc manifest will sync to after it is received in Metrc. |
| In Progress | Where saved drafts are stored to resume at a later time. |
| Archive | A location to archive manifests to declutter the UI. |
| Outgoing | Shows your outgoing transfers. |

Creating a Purchase Order from a Manifest

1. Log into BLAZE using your email and password.
2. Navigate to the Compliance section on the left-hand menu, then select Compliance Transfers.
-
- Incoming - Where your Metrc manifest will sync to after being received in Metrc
- In Progress - Where saved drafts are stored to resume at a later time
- Archive - Archive manifest to declutter the UI
- Outgoing - Shows your outgoing transfers (coming soon)

3. Using the LISTING VENDOR dropdown filter, select the vendor/manifest you would like to accept.

4. After filtering, click the vendor/manifest line item to view the associated packages.

5. Select the packages you wish to receive by checking the corresponding box, then click Create PO.
6. Enter all applicable information associated with this vendor/manifest to create the PO:
| Field | Description |
| Vendor | Name of the vendor the items are purchased from. |
| Inventory | The inventory location the items will be added to upon intake. |
| Payment Options | Form of payment used. |
| Terms | Payment terms of the purchase order. |
| Purchase Date | Date the product was purchased. |
| Delivery Date | Date the product was delivered. |
| Reference # | Internal purchase order reference number. |

7. Associate the cannabis products in BLAZE to the items being received from Metrc by clicking the Product Name dropdown and selecting the corresponding BLAZE product per line.
NOTE: ONLY cannabis products associated with a Cannabis category will be available to associate with Metrc packages.

8. Edit Batch Details - After selecting the Product Name to associate your product, you can edit the batch details by clicking the icon on the far right of each line item.

This will open the batch profile. Add or edit the batch information, then click OK to save.

9.(Optional) To add non-cannabis products to the PO, click the Add Product button. 
You can add multiple lines to enter your non-cannabis products. Added products must be associated with the same Vendor as the PO prior to starting this process.

10. To finalize the PO, click Receive Purchase Order in the bottom right corner.
11. Alternatively, you can click Save Draft to revisit the draft later under the In Progress tab.
WARNING: After a PO has been received, no additional changes can be made.

NOTE: After you have successfully created your purchase order, you can navigate to Inventory > Purchase Orders and select the Active POs tab to view it. Creating the PO also automatically generates a shipment bill that allows you to add payments within the Bills tab.
-
Creating a Purchase Order Manually
If you need to bypass the manifest selection, you can manually generate a purchase order directly from the Compliance Transfers screen.

-
Click the Create PO button without selecting a manifest or its associated packages.
-
The standard Compliance Transfer UI will populate. You must first select a Vendor from the dropdown menu.

-
Click the Add Product button located in the bottom right corner.
-
Manually add your line items to the PO (because packages were not pre-selected from the previous screen).
-
Complete the remaining PO details and finalize by clicking Receive Purchase Order or Save Draft.
NOTE: Selecting a vendor is required so that the product mapping list can be accurately curated for that specific vendor.
-
Archive Purchase Orders
If you need to clear out pending transfers that you do not intend to receive:
-
Select the manifest from the pending transfer dropdown.
-
Check the boxes for the packages you wish to remove.
-
Click Archive. This will move the selected items into the Archive queue and declutter your Incoming tab.
