Step-by-Step Resolution

Expand each section as needed

1
Symptoms
Info
Recommended validation or troubleshooting step
- Physical inventory does not match package counts in Canix or Metrc. - A package appears consumed, transferred, or sold in one record set but not another. - End-of-day review shows a discrepancy the team cannot explain confidently.
2
Likely Causes
Info
Recommended validation or troubleshooting step
- A transaction was completed in one system but not reconciled in the matching operational record. - Package edits, adjustments, or receives were posted under the wrong package or timing window. - Staff continued activity after the first discrepancy instead of isolating it immediately.
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
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
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
Apply safe remediation steps
Info
Recommended validation or troubleshooting step
- Pause additional movement, relabeling, transfer, or sale activity on the affected packages until the discrepancy is understood. - Reconcile package IDs, counts, timestamps, and last-user actions across physical inventory, Canix, Metrc, and any supporting manifest records. - Document the first confirmed point where the records diverged before making corrective entries. - Use one named owner for the discrepancy review so multiple teams do not make overlapping corrections.
7
Escalate when access, policy, or security controls are involved
Warning
Review carefully before proceeding
- The variance cannot be explained on the same day or affects multiple packages. - The discrepancy may require incident reporting, formal adjustment, or compliance review. - The affected inventory has already moved downstream or reached a retail context.
