Step-by-Step Resolution

Expand each section as needed

  1. 1

    Symptoms

    Info

    Recommended validation or troubleshooting step

    - A package created or edited in Canix does not appear in Metrc after the normal workflow. - A received transfer or package change made in Metrc is still missing in Canix. - Staff members start re-entering the same action because the systems appear out of sync.

  2. 2

    Likely Causes

    Info

    Recommended validation or troubleshooting step

    - The normal Metrc-to-Canix sync window has not elapsed yet. - A queue, retry, or API credential issue is delaying the update. - The transaction is waiting on a separate state-system review or transfer action.

  3. 3

    Confirm scope, user impact, and reproduction

    Info

    Recommended validation or troubleshooting step

    Document whether the issue affects one user, multiple users, or multiple devices. Confirm exact error messages, recent changes (password reset, update, network change), and whether the same issue reproduces in web vs desktop workflows where applicable.

  4. 4

    Validate prerequisites and application/session state

    Info

    Recommended validation or troubleshooting step

    Confirm the user is signed in with the correct corporate account, system time is accurate, network/VPN connectivity is stable, and the application is not running in offline or limited mode.

  5. 5

    Run safe diagnostics from the Commands section

    Info

    Recommended validation or troubleshooting step

    Use the command snippets below to collect non-destructive diagnostics. Capture output in the ticket when escalation may be required. Avoid deleting profiles, cached credentials, or managed app data unless the runbook or admin approval explicitly allows it.

  6. 6

    Apply safe remediation steps

    Info

    Recommended validation or troubleshooting step

    - Wait through the normal sync window first, then use the supported Canix refresh action instead of re-submitting the transaction. - Compare the package or transfer history in both systems using the exact IDs and timestamps before making another inventory change. - Confirm the facility, license, and user credentials tied to the integration are correct for the operator who submitted the action. - Pause any downstream sell, transfer, or receive activity until the package state matches across systems.

  7. 7

    Escalate when access, policy, or security controls are involved

    Warning

    Review carefully before proceeding

    - Sync delay continues beyond the expected window or multiple transactions are queued. - The discrepancy affects a shipment, receive workflow, or state inventory record. - API keys, user attribution, or facility mapping appear to be wrong.

    Admin review or admin rights may be required for this step.

  8. 8

    Capture cross-system sync evidence (Admin Required)

    Command

    Includes a copyable command block

    Command
    # License / facility:
    # User who submitted the change:
    # Package or transfer ID:
    # Action performed in Canix or Metrc:
    # Timestamp of the last successful sync seen in each system:
    # Screenshot package history, transfer history, and any retry/warning banner.
  9. 9

    When to Escalate to IT / Security

    Warning

    Review carefully before proceeding

    - Sync delay continues beyond the expected window or multiple transactions are queued. - The discrepancy affects a shipment, receive workflow, or state inventory record. - API keys, user attribution, or facility mapping appear to be wrong.
