Is it necessary to use Metrc in Oklahoma?
Yes, all licensed Oklahoma cannabis dispensary operators will have to start using Metrc to report all cannabis product transactions to the state. A licensee may input sales data directly into Metrc through its user interface but Metrc will provide an API key to customers who wish to use a third-party inventory management POS system. All OK dispensaries will be required to use the UID tracking tags supplied by Metrc.
OMMA will use data inconsistencies in Metrc to detect any diversions from the mandated regulations. If they find any discrepancies, they could conduct an investigation and impose hefty fines. By using a reliable and validated retail POS system that is integrated with Metrc, you will just not save significant time and money in reporting sales and inventory, but also greatly reduce any risks of having regulatory issues.
