  • A package created or edited in Canix does not appear in Metrc after the normal workflow.

  • Staff members start re-entering the same action because the systems appear out of sync.

Likely Causes of your admin has configured the application to block users

  • The transaction is waiting on a separate state-system review or transfer action.

How to Fix: your admin has configured the application to block users

Accordion runbook sections

  1. 1

    Confirm scope, user impact, and reproduction

    Info
    v

    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.

  2. 2

    Validate prerequisites and application/session state

    Info
    v

    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.

  3. 3

    Run safe diagnostics from the Commands section

    Command
    v

    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.

  4. 4

    Apply safe remediation steps

    Info
    v
    • 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.
  5. 5

    Escalate when access, policy, or security controls are involved

    WarningAdmin required
    v
    • 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.
