Weight-based inventory

Bulk flower that you sell by the gram is the most common type of weight-based inventory. Weight-based inventory is an item that you assigned a weight (grams, ounces, pounds, etc.) as the Unit Of Measure when you created the Product.

Greenbits recommends always selecting grams for weight-based items, since they are most often sold in grams. When you sell weight-based items, the Register prompts you to enter the total weight you are selling based on what the customer wants to purchase.

Volume-based inventory

Although not applicable in all states, occasionally you may need to receive and track inventory by volume (measured in fluid ounces) instead of by weight.

Volume-based inventory works just like weight-based inventory. Learn more about receiving inventory in fluid ounces.

Unit-based inventory

Pre-rolls and cartridges are examples of unit-based inventory. Unit-based inventory is an item that you assigned units as the Unit Of Measure and assigned a weight-per-unit when you created the Product. You assign a weight for unit-based inventory so that Greenbits can enforce transaction limits. When you sell unit-based inventory, you'll scan each unit individually that the customer wants to buy.
