Info About Metrc Tags
There are two types of tagged inventory in Metrc: Plants and Packages. Each unique identifier (UID) tag uses radio-frequency identification (RFID) transponders that allow for automatic remote reading and identification of the tagged product. The tag numbers allow Metrc to track and trace all cannabis products through the commercial cannabis supply chain. Information electronically embedded in the tags includes the facility name, business license number, the date the tag was ordered, a unique 24-digit identification number, and a bar code that matches the identification number programmed on the RFID.
- For First-Timer Metrc users - after Metrc access has been granted, the designated account manager will be able to order your Plant and Package tags.
- You don’t want to run out of Plant or Package tags, as you aren't allowed to operate without them as you would have inventory that couldn’t be recorded in Metrc.
