How to Add a New Employee to METRC
| Add New METRC Employee – Personal Details vs. Permissions | |
|---|---|
| You need two things to add a new user in METRC: the employee’s personal details and their role permissions. Each user must have their own login. | |
| 1 • Gather Employee Information | |
| a. | Log into your METRC administrator account. Go to Admin → Employees and click Add Employees. |
| b. | Enter the employee’s date of birth and last four digits of their SSN or occupational/handler permit number. |
| c. | Provide a valid email address for the user. |
| d. | Select the licenses the employee should access if you have multiple licenses. ➜ METRC uses this information to generate the user’s account and sends a welcome email with instructions to set their password. |
| 2 • Set Permissions & Access | |
| a. | Check the boxes for the tasks this employee needs to perform (Plants, Packages, Transfers, Sales, etc.). Do not select Administration unless the user should have full administrative rights. |
| b. | Select a Home page the employee has permission to access. Check Enable online access to allow the employee to log in. |
| c. | If you have multiple licenses, select each license the employee should access. |
| d. | Give the employee Sales Manager permission in Marijuana Software if they need to report and edit sales receipts in METRC. Without Sales Manager, they cannot correct sales mistakes. |
| 3 • Create the Employee | |
| a. | Review the information and permissions you entered. |
| b. | Click Create Employees. Confirm the new user appears in your employee list and that they receive the welcome email. |
| ✅ Employee added and assigned appropriate permissions successfully. | |
