Cannabis ERP for lot traceability, batch records and GMP documents.

• METRC and the ERP Disagree

  Two systems, two truths. Reconciliation happens at month-end, the variance investigation is the audit finding.

• Seed-to-sale is a label, not a system

  If you can't show every gram from clone to package — through extraction, formulation, and packaging — you fail the next inspection.

• Lab COAs Arrive After Product Ships

  Without a hard gate, untested product moves. The recall is bigger than the lot.

• GMP buyers walk when they see paper records

  Bulk extract, infused beverages, edibles — the off-take wants GMP. Spreadsheets disqualify you in due diligence.

• METRC Sync, Not METRC Re-Entry

  Plants, packages, transfers, lab results — all synced bidirectionally. Variances surface in real time, not at month-end.

• True Seed-to-Sale Genealogy

  Every clone, every harvest, every extraction lot, every blend, every package — linked. Recall, not days.

• Lab COA Gate Before Release

  Pesticides, microbials, potency — V5 won't release a lot to inventory without passing COAs from the approved lab.

• GMP-Grade Controls for off-Take Buyers

  Trained operators, current SOPs, qualified equipment, e-signed batch records — the same architecture as pharma. Sell into hospitals, beverage co-packers, and CPG.

A cannabis operation on V5 across cultivation, processing, and sale.

1. Plants Tagged and METRC-Synced. Plants tagged at propagation; movement, mother stage, and waste sync to METRC automatically.
2. Yield Reconciled Live. Wet/dry weights captured at the scale, reconciled against expected yield. Anomalies open investigations before state audit.
3. Extraction/Infusion as Batch Record. Extracts and edibles produce signed batch records with genealogy from source plants forward to packages.
4. COA Gates Release. State-required testing posts to packages; failures quarantine; passes release for transfer.
5. Manifest Emitted. Transfer manifests generate per state rule; chain-of-custody captured end-to-end.
6. Sale Reconciles to State and Production. POS sales sync back to package and state report; shrink and variance reconcile continuously.

Cannabis software splits into seed-to-sale tools and ERPs. Most operators run both, badly integrated.

• METRC sync without re-keying

  Does the system sync to METRC bidirectionally — without operator re-keying? Bidirectional METRC sync at the event. Plants, packages, transfers, sales reconcile automatically.

• Lab COA Gates Release

  Does the system block sale or transfer of any lot without a passing state-required COA? COA tied to package; failed or missing COA blocks transfer.

• GMP-Grade Controls for B2B off-Take

  Can the system run pharma-style controls for buyers that require them? Full GMP control set runs on the same data.

• Yield and Waste Reconciliation

  Are plant counts, harvest weights, and waste events reconciled automatically with state reports? Yield/waste reconciliation is continuous; deltas open investigations before state audit.

• Inventory by Location and Stage

  Can the system show every package by room, stage, and state-required attributes — live? Live by-location inventory with stage, age, and state attributes.

• Multi-State Operator Support

  Does the system handle state-by-state rule variation? State rule sets are configuration, not custom code.

• Production batch record (extracts, edibles)

  Does extraction and infusion produce a real batch record? Extracts and edibles produce signed batch records with genealogy back to source plants and forward to packages.

• Closed-Loop with Retail / Dispensary

  Are retail sales reconciled live with production and state package state? Retail POS, packages, and state report stay in continuous reconciliation.

How V5 cannabis ERP compares to typical stacks.

Cannabis is governed at the state level in the US plus increasing federal interest.

• CO MED 3-605 (Inventory Tracking)

  Bidirectional METRC sync at every state-reportable event with reconciliation and audit trail.

• CA BCC §15303

  California METRC events emit at the action; manual re-keying is eliminated.

• FDA 21 CFR 111 (when applied to dietary-supplement cannabis)

  V5 produces 21 CFR 111-grade MMRs and BPRs for dietary-supplement cannabis operators.

• USP <1111> / state lab requirements

  COAs link to packages and gate release. Failures quarantine the package and trigger investigation.

• State-specific cannabis regulations (METRC, BioTrack jurisdictions)
• 21 CFR 111 (cGMP for dietary supplements — adjacent framework)
• Health Canada Cannabis Regulations (Part 5 GPP / GMP)
• ISO 17025 (testing labs — referenced for COAs)

• Cannabis
• Nutraceuticals
• Consumer Products
• Traceability & Recall
• eBMR / eDHR
• Lab QC
• Document control
• Certificate of Analysis (COA)
• cGMP

Does V5 integrate with METRC?

Yes — bidirectional sync for plants, packages, transfers, and lab results. Variances between physical inventory and METRC surface in real time, not at month-end.

Can V5 handle cultivation and manufacturing in one system?

Yes. Clone-to-harvest, extraction, formulation, infusion, packaging, and distribution all run on the same platform with one genealogy chain.

What about lab COA gating?

V5 will not release a lot to saleable inventory until passing COAs from the approved lab are attached. Failures quarantine the lot and open a deviation/CAPA automatically.

Is V5 GMP-grade for off-take buyers?

Yes. Trained-operator gates, current-SOP enforcement, qualified equipment, e-signed batch records, and 21 CFR Part 11 controls — same architecture pharma customers use.
