Canix provides multiple avenues for correcting mistakes in Non-Cannabis costs/application to Packages, helping you add missing costs/ingredients, or remove incorrect ingredients that were accidentally associated to Packages:
Missing Non-Cannabis Application
To remediate missing Non-Cannabis Inventory before new packages are created, Canix has added a Non-Cannabis Inventory tab to Split and Combine Package Creation Flows. This tab provides detailed tracking into how much Non-Cannabis Inventory will be used from Bills of Materials to create the new cannabis outputs.
Warnings for Insufficient Non-Cannabis Inventory
During Split & Combine Actions
The Non-Cannabis Inputs tab is designed to offer a comprehensive view of all non-cannabis materials used in the package splitting process. This tab is located at the top of the split package and combine package card providing easy access and visibility.
Check out this video from our product team covering the tab in action: Non-Cannabis Inputs Tab.
- Warning for Insufficient NCI Quantity: If there is insufficient non-cannabis quantity, a warning symbol with a hover tip will appear on the Non-Cannabis Inputs tab, alerting you to potential issues.
- Bill of Material (BOM) Integration: By default, no Bill of Material will be used since the new item is pre-filled the same as the source, which doesn’t apply a BOM. However, when a BOM is applied as new items are populated in the action, all BOMs being applied to cannabis items will be listed in the same order as the cannabis item names in the cannabis tab.
- Collapsible Cannabis Items: Cannabis items can be collapsed or uncollapsed, with the default setting being collapsed. This feature helps in managing screen real estate and focusing on specific items as needed.
- Hyperlinked BOMs: The Bill of Material is displayed in subtext underneath the quantity, and it is hyperlinked to open in a new tab, providing quick access to detailed information.
- Hyperlinked NCI Items: The Non-Cannabis Inventory Items required for each Cannabis Output being created are hyperlinked, allowing quick and easy editing access
- Refresh Non-Cannabis Quantities: If new Non-Cannabis Inventory Quantity is added, you can simply select the Refresh Non-Cannabis Quantities button to pull in the most up to date quantity values for your NCI
- Quantity Applied Upon Submission: This feature shows the amount of non-cannabis inventory that will be applied to the packages of that item, whether complete, partial, or none. It provides clarity on the usage and availability of non-cannabis inputs.
- Confirmation Message on Submission: When the Submit button is selected with missing NCI quantities, a confirmation message will display, ensuring you are aware of any discrepancies before proceeding.
- Error Handling and Logging: The system will apply all NCI that had available quantities and skip applying NCI with 0 quantity. Errors will be displayed, and a log will be created for each package that did not receive NCI, detailing which NCI didn’t apply, the quantity, the date, and the BOM name. This log facilitates tracking and addressing any issues promptly.
During Manufacturing Runs
Warnings for insufficient Non-Cannabis Inventory are also provided in Manufacturing Runs in Canix. See this article for more details.
Find Packages with Missing Non-Cannabis Ingredients
When a Package associated to an Item that is on a Bill of Material, does not have all of the expected Non-Cannabis Ingredients (according to the Bill of Material), the Package will be flagged as "Missing Non-Cannabis" on the Packages table:
Filter to "Missing Non-Cannabis" = Yes to find Packages missing Non-Cannabis Ingredients!
To explore the missing Non-Cannabis in more detail, click on the Package link then "View Detail". The "Activity History" tab and "COGs Breakdown" will show if any Non-Cannabis ingredients have been applied:
If the Package, or Packages, are missing all Non-Cannabis ingredients, you can use the Items table to search the Item. When clicking on the Item, on the "Costing" tab, you'll see details for which Bill of Materials the Item is associated to:
Click on the Bill of Material name highlighted to view the details of the Bill of Material:
This will provide context to see what should have applied to the Package.
Apply Bill of Materials in Bulk to Update Costs
To add Missing Non-Cannabis ingredients to Packages use the "Apply Non-Cannabis Inventory" action or see the video below for details on Applying Bill of Materials after Package creation in Bulk:
Bulk Remove Non-Cannabis Costs/Ingredients
There are a few different scenarios that might cause you to have the incorrect Non-Cannabis Ingredients applied to Packages:
- A Bill of Material was created with the incorrect NCI Ingredients or Quantities
- The incorrect Item was selected during Split Package, Combine Package or Manufacturing Runs leading to the wrong Bill of Material being applied
- Accidental Double application of Ingredients to Packages
- General user error entering incorrect quantities during manual application or Manufacturing Runs
- Etc.
For these scenarios we've added an action to remove Non-Cannabis Usages in Bulk from the Non-Cannabis Usage Submissions table. Please keep in mind when using this action:
- Quantities will be added back to the Lots they were pulled from
- De-activated Lots will be re-activated
- Any Usages removed will be deleted permanently and cannot be restored
- Costs on child Packages will NOT automatically be updated
- To use this action you will need "Edit" access to the "Non-Cannabis Costs" permission
For an overview of how to use the feature please see the video below:
If you need to add back the correct NCI Ingredients after removing the incorrect ingredients, please see the instructions above on Applying Bill of Materials in Bulk.
