Per guidance from the Missouri Division of Cannabis Regulation and Metrc, the new required Metrc Item Category fields include: 

  • Administration method
  • Number of Doses
  • Public Ingredients
  • Serving Size
  • State Approval
  • Strain
  • Unit CBD Content
  • Unit CBD Content Dose
  • Unit THC Content
  • Unit THC Content Dose
  • Unit Weight 

Please refer to the Metrc bulletin for the fields required for each product category type.

Configure required fields and sync to Metrc

To help you navigate these changes and remain compliant, we have made it to where you can update your Dutchie POS Catalog with the required fields and sync to Metrc as require. First, you'll must need configure the required fields to show in the Catalog so that you may populate the information. To configure, go to Products > Configure:

  1. Click the Fields tab. Ensure that all the required Dutchie Catalog Fields are set to Show, see Field Mapping.
  2. Go to Products > Catalog
  3. For all products that you currently have in inventory, populate all the required fields AND ensure that the Sync to METRC item field is set to Yes for each catalog item.
    Note: If ‘Sync to METRC item’ is not set to ‘Yes’, the populated fields will not sync to Metrc as required.
  4. You must also populate the External Category for each catalog item. The External Category should match the ‘final packaging’ category for each item; for example:
    • Ground/Bud Flower (Final Packaging)
    • Infused Edible (Final Packaging)
    • Concentrate (Final Packaging)
    • Raw Preroll (Final Packaging)
    • Infused Non-Edible (Final Packaging)
    • Ground Shake/Trim (Final Packaging)
    • Immature Plants (Final Packaging)
    • Vape Cartridge (Final Packaging)

Metrc and Dutchie field mapping

If the required fields are populated in Metrc by the cultivator or manufacturer, the fields will pull through when retailers bring the inventory into DPOS and no further action needs to be taken.

Frequently asked questions 

Do the fields have to be set to “Required” or “Show”?

Setting the fields to “Show” is sufficient; it is not necessary to make them “Required”.

Do I also need to “maintain items”?

No, you do not need to ‘maintain items,’ but you need to set ‘Sync to Metrc’ to Yes for each catalog item.

What if I don’t have the information that each required field is asking for?  

Dutchie recommends making an educated guess or contacting the cultivator/manufacturer. As long as the field is populated with something, Metrc should accept it.

Does Item Approval need to be populated?

Item Approval is a field in Metrc that will be populated after a product successfully goes through DCR’s Item Approval Process.
