For New York processors running inline labeling workflows, timing is everything. Until now, generating Retail Item ID QR codes required an active Metrc package — forcing you to unseal finished boxes just to apply labels after the fact.
That changes today.
Staged Packages in Canix lets you generate Retail Item ID (RIID) QR codes before a package is created in Metrc, so your labeling workflow can keep pace with your production line.
Here's what's new:
- Generate RIIDs upfront — Select available Metrc package tags, enter your label quantity, and generate Retail Item IDs before inventory is active in Metrc
- Manage staged packages in one place — The new Metrc Staged Package Tags tab lets you track generated quantities and re-download IDs anytime
- Print labels seamlessly — A new "Staged Package" tag type in Create Labels pulls directly from your staged tags, so you can print facility info and QR codes without waiting on test results or package data
With New York's RIID mandate now in effect for Processor → Distributor and Distributor → Dispensary transfers, staying compliant means staying ahead. Staged Packages helps you do exactly that — without breaking your production line.
