METRC Transfer Manifest Creation and Completion

Question 1

In METRC, who is responsible for creating a transfer manifest when cannabis products move between two licensed facilities?

Accepted Answer

The sending (transferring) facility creates the manifest before the transfer departs

Answer

The sending facility is responsible for creating the METRC transfer manifest before the product leaves the premises. The manifest must be active in the system before the vehicle departs, and a printed or digital copy must accompany the shipment.

Question 2

What must a cannabis transporter have with them at all times during a METRC-tracked transfer?

Accepted Answer

A copy of the METRC transfer manifest, either printed or accessible on a digital device

Answer

METRC requires that a copy of the transfer manifest accompany every licensed cannabis transfer. Law enforcement or regulatory inspectors may request it, and the manifest serves as proof that the transfer is authorized and tracked.

Question 3

A receiving facility inspects an incoming METRC transfer and finds one package is damaged. What are their options in METRC?

Accepted Answer

Accept the undamaged packages and reject only the damaged package, or reject the entire transfer

Answer

METRC allows receiving facilities to partially accept a transfer, accepting compliant packages while rejecting others. Rejected packages must be returned to the sender and the transfer updated accordingly in METRC.

Question 4

What happens in METRC if a transfer is rejected by the receiving facility?

Accepted Answer

The rejected packages are returned to the sender's inventory and the transfer is marked as rejected in METRC

Answer

When a receiving facility rejects a transfer (fully or partially), the rejected packages are returned to the sending facility and credited back to their METRC inventory. The transfer record reflects the rejection, maintaining a complete audit trail.

Question 5

Which of the following pieces of information is REQUIRED on every METRC transfer manifest?

Accepted Answer

The UID of each package being transferred, quantities, and the license numbers of both the sending and receiving facilities

Answer

METRC manifests must include the package UIDs, product quantities/weights, and license numbers for both origin and destination facilities. This information is the minimum required for regulatory traceability of each licensed transfer.
