The Florida MMTC Inventory Lifecycle, Seed to Dispensation

Florida Rule 64-4.222 incorporates a required-data document for an MMTC's internal STS. The document follows inventory through cultivation and processing and specifies the information the system must provide to the Department. Use it as a field map for reports and exception checks.

Follow the inventory chain

1. Seed and clone batches: identify the batch, cultivar/strain, quantity, facility, room, and source where applicable.
2. Plants: connect each tracked plant to its source and record its location and required plant details.
3. Harvest: schedule the harvest before it occurs, then record the plants, location, wet flower, waste, other material, units, and resulting storage location.
4. Lots and sublots: retain the source harvest link, amount, unit, type, cultivar/strain, and location.
5. Processing: link inputs to outputs; record converted amounts, ingredients, waste, units, and post-process location.
6. Final product: maintain product type, units or net amount, Department-approved product name, unique product ID, expiration date, and room/location.

Separate product identity from inventory identity

Rule 64-4.221 defines the unique product ID as an MMTC-assigned identifier for a product type. Rule 64-4.222 also uses a Department STS inventory identification number for a particular dispensation record. Keep the product master and package/lot inventory key in separate fields so a single product type can map to multiple inventory records.

Use the correct reporting clock

The incorporated data document sets a default of 12 hours after the underlying action unless it states a different timeframe for that data. Rule 64-4.221 separately requires the internal STS to connect and communicate with the Department system in real time. Connection timing and event-data submission timing are different controls; do not treat them as one deadline.
