Step-by-Step Resolution

Expand each section as needed

  1. 1

    Symptoms

    Info

    Recommended validation or troubleshooting step

    - Canix suggests an incoming transfer tag instead of the next expected package tag. - The next package number does not match the facility’s received package-tag range. - Teams working across multiple licenses are unsure which tag range should be active.

  2. 2

    Likely Causes

    Info

    Recommended validation or troubleshooting step

    - Package tags were received in Metrc but the prefix was never updated in Canix facility management. - The wrong license or facility context is selected. - Staff are mixing plant-tag and package-tag workflows.

  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

    - Confirm the facility has already received the correct package tags in Metrc before changing any Canix setting. - Update the package-tag prefix in Canix using the first digits from the correct package tag for that license. - Verify the active license or facility in Canix before creating new inventory. - Re-test with a single package creation workflow before releasing the process back to the broader team.

  7. 7

    Escalate when access, policy, or security controls are involved

    Warning

    Review carefully before proceeding

    - Wrong tags were already printed or used on live inventory. - Multiple licenses share the same team and the tag assignment path is still unclear. - State traceability could be compromised by continuing package creation.

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

  8. 8

    Capture package tag context (Admin Required)

    Command

    Includes a copyable command block

    Command
    # Facility / license:
    # Example tag Canix is suggesting:
    # Example package tag actually received in Metrc:
    # Admin > Facility Management screenshot:
    # Whether any incorrect tags were already used on live packages:
  9. 9

    When to Escalate to IT / Security

    Warning

    Review carefully before proceeding

    - Wrong tags were already printed or used on live inventory. - Multiple licenses share the same team and the tag assignment path is still unclear. - State traceability could be compromised by continuing package creation.
