Recommended validation or troubleshooting step
- A package, lot, or finished good may be affected by a recall, quality issue, or market-withdrawal decision. - Operations is unsure whether product should remain available while the review continues. - The team needs to identify where affected inventory currently sits across storage, transfer, or retail staging.
Recommended validation or troubleshooting step
- An upstream quality, testing, labeling, or safety issue triggered a hold or recall review. - The same source material or finished goods exist in multiple packages and locations. - Teams are treating the event like a normal inventory adjustment instead of a traceability-sensitive incident.
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.
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.
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.
Recommended validation or troubleshooting step
- Immediately isolate the affected package IDs, lots, and downstream finished goods from sale, transfer, or further processing. - Capture where the affected inventory exists physically and digitally before making any non-reversible adjustments. - Align the product list across Canix, Metrc, manifests, and any retail staging or fulfillment records. - Use one incident owner to coordinate the package list, internal communications, and vendor or compliance follow-up.
Review carefully before proceeding
- The affected product has already moved to another facility, delivery workflow, or retail context. - The scope of the affected inventory is not immediately clear. - Formal compliance, legal, or vendor-led recall handling is required.
Admin review or admin rights may be required for this step.
