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

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
    • Verify the exact package ID being transferred and compare it to the package referenced by the test result or COA.
    • Coordinate with the upstream operator or lab workflow owner to attach the correct result before initiating dispensary transfer.
    • Use the approved retest or corrected-result path rather than shipping inventory under the wrong status.
    • Hold the package until the final package state and test status align.
  5. 5

    Escalate when access, policy, or security controls are involved

    WarningAdmin required
    v
    • The package is scheduled for same-day dispensary movement and still lacks the required status.
    • The COA exists but is tied to the wrong package or source record.
    • Potential hold, recall, or formal compliance review is needed.
