Packaging Inventory with MMJ Waste

Let's look at an example of packaging Bulk Concentrate from Flower & Buds, then packaging the remaining weight (waste) into MMJ Waste.

From the Inventory Overview, click the clipboard icon on your bulk package to copy the tag number, then click Package:

In this example, we are making 500g of Bulk Concentrate from 2,270g of Flower & Buds. Under Amount to Use, we will only enter the amount of concentrate produced:

At the bottom of the window, we enter the final weight of the concentrate, and we will not enter a waste weight:

Now, we will follow the steps in the next section, Package MMJ Waste from Inventory, to create the MMJ Waste package from the remaining Flower & Buds weight.

Package MMJ Waste from Inventory

1. From the Inventory Overview, click the clipboard icon on your bulk package to copy the tag number

2. Click Package:

3. For bulk waste, select Bulk Inventory. For waste created from pre-packaged inventory, select Pre-packaged Items.

4. Under What are we making? Select the applicable MMJ Waste option

5. Under What kind? Select the applicable MMJ Waste product

Note: If an applicable product does not appear in the drop-down, click Create New Product Template to create one.

6. If a Product Template was selected in step 5, select the applicable strain

7. Select All to use the full quantity to create your MMJ Waste or enter a partial value

8. Enter the same value as step 7 for the Total Waste Produced

9. If the package's Lab status is Failed or Submitted for Testing, Metrc will block the MMJ Waste from being transferred. To prevent this, check the This product requires QA re-testing box to reset the MMJ Waste's QA status

Note: If your package has Passed or no QA results, skip this step.

10. Keep the waste entry as 0. This field is not applicable to MMJ Waste.

11. Select a room to hold the MMJ Waste package

12. Optional: If the remaining quantity of the packages is being used and you would like to finish this package, check the Finish Package(s) box.

13. Confirm the next tag to use

14. Click Preview Convert to review the MMJ Waste package details in the next window, then click Convert to finish

15. The MMJ Waste package will be found on the Inventory Overview. Continue to the section Transfer MMJ Waste for steps on transferring the MMJ Waste to a Waste facility.

Package MMJ Waste from Clones, Seeds

1. Click on the strain name or on the green arrow to progress the clones to Plants

2. Enter the number of clones to be packaged in MMJ Waste

Note: Do not destroy the leftover source. Leave these columns empty.

3. Click Create New Plants

4. Continue to the next section, Package MMJ Waste from Veg or Flowering Plants. The clones will need to be progressed through Veg and Flower.

Package MMJ Waste from Veg or Flowering Plants

1. If the Plants are in Veg, click the green arrow to progress the Plants to Flower

2. In the Flower stage, click the green arrow to enter a harvest weight

Note: The plants need to be harvested in GrowFlow to package into MMJ Waste

3. Select only the plants that will be transferred to the Waste Facility as MMJ Waste

4. Enter the total waste weight of the plants as the Harvest Weight

Note: Do not enter the MMJ Waste in the Waste field. The MMJ Waste Weight must be entered as the Harvest Weight.

5. Click Harvest # Plants

6. Continue to the next section Package MMJ Waste from a Harvest to send the Clones or Plants through harvest to package them as MMJ Waste

Package MMJ Waste from a Harvest Batch

1. On the Grow Overview, select the applicable Harvest from the Harvest column

2. In the Package Harvest Batch window, enter the collective waste weight of the clones, veg or flowering plants, or harvested waste

3. Select the applicable MMJ Waste type:

  • MMJ Clone Waste

  • MMJ Waste

  • MMJ Waste (by Count)


4. Click Collection Additional to keep the harvest open

Note: Do not skip this step! The harvest must remain open until the MMJ Waste is packaged in Metrc. If you need to close the harvest, refer to Step 9, but only after completing Steps 5-8.

5. Click Create

6. Exit the Package Harvest Batch window to return to the Grow Overview. Then, click Waste atop the Bulk Inv. column.

7. In the Grow Waste window, select the harvest waste with the MMJ waste reason

8. Click Dispose Selected. This action will report the MMJ waste to Metrc.

7. Log in to your Metrc account to package the harvest waste into MMJ Waste for transfer

8. In Metrc, create the MMJ Waste package from harvest waste in the Harvested > Waste tab

Note: This step cannot be performed in GrowFlow because Metrc requires the Harvest Waste ID to package MMJ waste from harvest waste. However, the Harvest Waste ID is unavailable in the Metrc API for GrowFlow's use.

9. Optional: If the harvest is finished and needs to be closed, return to the harvest in GrowFlow and click More.

Then, click Edit to toggle the Harvest State to Closed and click Save.

10. Continue to the next section Transfer MMJ Waste for steps on transferring the MMJ Waste to a Waste facility.

Transfer MMJ Waste

When you're ready to transfer the MMJ Waste, hover over the blue tag ID and click the clipboard icon to copy the tag number, then go to Orders > New Order to start the waste transfer.

Note: If the MMJ Waste was packaged in Metrc and you do not yet see it in GrowFlow, head to Admin > Sync to run an Inventory Sync to pull the MMJ Waste package in.

From here, select the Order Type as Waste then select the applicable Waste Facility as the customer.

See How To Create A Sales Order for additional steps on creating orders.
