Seed-To-Sale Tracking & Reporting

Your state tracking system and your accounting system are supposed to describe the same reality. In most cannabis businesses, they do not.

Your state tracking system and your accounting system are supposed to describe the same reality. In most cannabis businesses, they do not โ€” and the gap is where both regulatory findings and IRS documentation problems originate.

We reconcile the two and build the process that keeps them aligned.

What's Included

โœ“Reconciliation โ€” of METRC, BioTrack, or your state system to the general ledger
โœ“Variance investigation โ€” and resolution, with documented explanations
โœ“Inventory costing โ€” tied to tracked units
โœ“Waste and destruction โ€” documentation that satisfies both regulator and examiner
โœ“Transfer and manifest โ€” reconciliation across license types
โœ“Monthly procedure โ€” so the two systems stay aligned going forward

Why This Differs In Cannabis

No other industry has a government-mandated parallel inventory system that must match the books. When your tracking system shows a quantity your ledger does not, you have two problems simultaneously: a compliance exposure with your state, and a hole in the documentation supporting your inventory costing โ€” which is the foundation of your 280E position.

Reconciling them is not bookkeeping hygiene. It is protecting the most valuable position on your return.

Two systems, one reality. When they disagree, you have two problems, not one.

Why MCA

We have served licensed cannabis operators since 2015 โ€” one of the first firms in the country to build a practice around it โ€” and we have worked with more than 100 operators across 30+ states. Cannabis is all we do, and all we have ever done.

Frequently Asked

Our systems have never reconciled. Where do we start?

With a point-in-time reconciliation to establish a clean baseline, then a monthly process going forward.

Which systems do you work with?

METRC, BioTrack, and the major cannabis POS and ERP platforms.

How much variance is normal?

Some is expected from moisture loss and rounding. Persistent or unexplained variance is the problem.
