As we approach Cannabis 2.0, the Canadian government has established cannabis product equivalencies. Consumers can still only purchase a maximum of 30 grams of dried flower at one time. According to the equivalency guidelines, one gram of dried cannabis is equal to:

It's December 14th, what are you waiting for! We recommend doing audits on Greenline at least once a week. You might be super busy and don't think it's worth the time but it will save you from greater trouble in the future.
Follow the instructions below to perform an audit:
Under your Dashboard > Inventory > Audit, press "Add audit" on the top right hand side of your screen, select the inventory location you're auditing for, and you should see a screen like the screenshot above.
Next, click "Bulk import" on the right hand side. This is a helpful tool to import the product you're looking to count. You can bring in products on a per category/vendor basis, and even select a date range for active products. What this means is that if a product has not been sold/audited within the specified time period, it will not be included in the import. This is especially helpful when you have a massive product catalog, and you only want to count relevant products.
If you want to add absolutely every product that fits your criteria, regardless of activity, you can simply press "X" next to the date filter.
Once you've added your products, you can enter your counted products, and view any discrepancies. Once everything has been filled in, press "Complete" on the top right hand of the screen to check in your new inventory counts. Your inventory will be replaced with the new quantities you've entered.
One important thing to understand is that your audit's "expected quantities" section is a snapshot from when you first created the audit. If you started your audit 30 minutes ago, the expected quantities will be from 30 minutes ago. If you want to compare against your latest values, press the "refresh" icon next to the table header.
To give stores more flexibility around standalone vs. variant products, we've developed the following options that are available in both the product list and edit product pages.
All 3 of these options will maintain inventory and sales history, making it easier to recover from products entered incorrectly the first time and reducing the need to delete compliance products (which makes generating compliance reports more difficult).
To further protect customers from potential disruptions, the Greenline team has greatly improved on the iPad offline mode feature. Once your app is updated, it will handle the following conditions:
The app will now locally store your company, location, device, shift, product, inventory, discount, and offline sales data in a resilient way that will re-populate once the connection to the Greenline API is restored. Thank you to our customers for providing us this feedback - we're always working hard to improve your store experience as we approach the holiday season.
To let you know about updates and upcoming features, we've implemented a non-obtrusive notification system in our Dashboard. It'll be available from 2 places: the main menu, and the homepage.

We've made it easier to identify when a product was sold into the negatives. Now, users don't need to wait for an audit to know if there are products that need investigating right away.
Click the arrow key to expand the list, then click a product name to search for the product.
In your reports, you can now see your total aggregate number of sales and average cart values rather than just the hourly breakdowns.
We've updated our BC compliance reporting format to match the new template. Notable changes:
We've made it easier to identify duplicate product entry issues.
On your product list page, if any products have duplicate barcodes or SKUs, a red warning will show up with links to correct them. Click the arrow key to expand your list and see links to the duplicates.
