Read the first 7 Compliance Requirements flashcards as text

  1. A METRC compliance audit reveals that a processor's recorded input weights do not match the combined output weights plus documented waste. This discrepancy most likely indicates:

    Answer: A potential diversion of product requiring investigation

    Unexplained weight discrepancies between inputs and outputs are a red flag for diversion and trigger regulatory investigation.

  2. In METRC, what is the purpose of the 'Waste' entry type on a plant batch record?

    Answer: To document unusable plant material that will not enter commercial inventory

    Waste entries in METRC account for plant material that is destroyed and removed from the commercial supply chain.

  3. A dispensary's physical inventory count finds 5 grams more flower than METRC shows. What is the correct compliance response?

    Answer: Record a package adjustment in METRC to reconcile the overage and document the reason

    Any discrepancy between physical inventory and METRC records must be reconciled with a documented adjustment and a reason code.

  4. Which of the following correctly describes a METRC 'Lab Sample' package?

    Answer: A small portion pulled from a production batch and transferred to a testing facility

    A Lab Sample is a designated portion of a batch extracted and transferred to a licensed testing lab before the batch can be released for sale.

  5. A cannabis retailer sells to a customer who claims to be a licensed dispensary. Without a METRC transfer record, the sale is:

    Answer: A compliance violation regardless of the buyer's licensee status

    All transfers between licensed entities must be processed through METRC; untracked transfers are violations even when both parties are licensed.

  6. What does the METRC 'Location' field on a plant or package record represent?

    Answer: The specific area within a licensed premises where the plant or package is stored

    Locations in METRC correspond to defined zones within a facility (e.g., Grow Room A, Vault 1) that licensees set up in their account.

  7. Under METRC compliance requirements, which action is required when a licensee permanently closes their business?

    Answer: Transfer or destroy all remaining inventory and notify the regulator to close the METRC account

    Closing licensees must dispose of all tracked inventory through METRC-recorded transfers or destruction before their license is surrendered.
