How to create accessory products, set the correct compliance status, troubleshoot purchase orders, and more

Updated over a week ago

Create an Accessory in Meadow

  1. Navigate to the Products tab.

  2. Build the product profile as you normally would for a cannabis product.

    • Add a product name, description, and images.

    • Set multiple price points if the product has different sizes or options.

  3. Under Unit, select "Item."

  4. Click "Save New Product."

🚨 Important: Set the Correct Compliance Status

After saving the product, Meadow will navigate to the Inventory settings:

  • Under Compliance Status, select "No Tracking" (since accessories are non-cannabis items and do not report to metrc).

  • Under Inventory Type, choose whether or not to track inventory.

    • Recommended Setting: Pricing Option - Count/Each Based.

    • No Inventory Tracking gives you unlimited sellable quantity.


πŸ’‘ Tip: Accessories should be assigned to a dedicated accessory category in Product Category Settings, with Cannabis Type set to None.


Adding Inventory to an Accessory

You can add inventory to an accessory using:

Adding Accessories to an Existing Purchase Order

  1. Navigate to the Purchase Orders tab and open an existing one.

  2. Ensure the purchase order status is "Open."

  3. Scroll to the Order Details page.

  4. In the "Product/Product Options" text box, type the name of the accessory and select it from the dropdown.

  5. Enter the quantity and cost per unit.

  6. Navigate to the Receptions tab and receive the accessory into inventory.

⚠️ If the Receptions tab asks for a Metrc Package ID, the product was incorrectly set to compliant.

How to Fix It:

  1. Navigate to the Order Details Page of the Purchase Order.

  2. Ensure the purchase order is "Open."

  3. Remove the accessory line item by clicking the red ❌.

  4. Find the accessory product in the Products tab and go to its Inventory settings.

  5. Under Compliance Status, select "No Tracking" (shown above).

  6. Re-add the accessory to the purchase order and complete the reception.
