Cannabis inventory software from plant to package.
Cannabis inventory software for staying compliant, maintaining accurate stock levels, and optimizing your manufacturing and distribution processes.
When every gram counts, spreadsheets can't keep up
Cannabis businesses move flower, trim, extracts and finished products through cultivation, processing and distribution, often across several sites. Every gram and every batch has to be accounted for.
Gram-level counts that drift
Weights change as flower is dried, trimmed and packaged, and spreadsheet counts quickly stop matching what is actually in the vault.
Batch history scattered everywhere
When an auditor or buyer asks where a batch came from, the answer is spread across grow logs, extraction sheets and invoices.
Disconnected sites and teams
Cultivation, processing and distribution often run on separate tools, so nobody has a single view of stock or open orders.
One record from harvest to delivery
Sutton connects inventory, production and sales across every site, so each batch keeps its lot number, history and documents from harvest to the final order.
Lot-Tracked Batches
Assign lot numbers to every harvest, extraction run and packaged product, with a full trace history.
Accurate Unit Conversions
Buy biomass by the pound, process in grams and sell by the unit with automatic UoM conversions.
Production With BOMs
Build multi-level bills of materials for pre-rolls, edibles and cartridges, then run them as work orders.
Wholesale Order Management
Manage dispensary and distributor orders with customer price lists and a B2B portal for repeat ordering.

No more implementation.
Just onboarding.
Sutton's onboarding agent reformats your data, configures your system, and gets you live. A real human is always a call away. And if something is missing, describe it in plain English and it exists inside the product in minutes.
Hi Siddharth,
How can I help you today?
AI agents reformat your data, map your fields, make bulk edits, and configure the system. What used to take weeks of manual work happens automatically. You review and confirm.
What would you recommend for purchase approvals?
For your operation, I’d add a manager review step only for high-value orders. It keeps things moving without losing control.
Sounds good. How soon can we test it?
I can have the updated workflow ready tomorrow, then we’ll test it with your team and move toward launch.
Map your locations, workflows, and rules. Sutton is configured around how your operation actually runs — no rigid templates.

Cannabis inventory software or cannabis ERP software helps you with seed-to-sale tracking by monitoring the lifecycle of a cannabis plant, such as:
- Seed plantation
- Cloning
- Harvesting
- Processing
- Packaging
- Final sale
Essentially, what your software is going to do is create an unbroken chain of custody that is connected to your internal inventory and production data. With this information saved, regulators and your team will have a record for every gram that your operation handles.
Batch traceability in cannabis manufacturing refers to the process of tracking where items came from and went, all across your different inventory types (from supplier to customer):
- Raw materials
- Ingredients
- WIP inventory
- Finished goods
The purpose of this is to have a record or documentation that shows you or regulators where each batch came from, how it was used, and where it ended up.
If you’re not tracking this information, then it’s going to be extremely difficult to identify the source of quality issues or respond to compliance audits. This process can be done manually with a combination of spreadsheets, emails, and disconnected systems. But, traceability is far easier (and more compliant) if you implement cannabis manufacturing software that can keep this information already organized and accessible.
For example, a cannabis ERP system like Sutton records every batch movement automatically, linking supplier receipts to manufacturing orders, finished goods, and sales orders, so it’s easier to see the full path of a lot and keep everything connected throughout its lifecycle.
When you generate a lot number with Sutton, it is tied directly to its origins, the amount, and how it was used throughout your operational steps, meaning you can access full end-to-end traceability of an item.
Another important thing that cannabis manufacturers need to keep in mind is whether their cannabis manufacturing ERP has the ability to store important documents and certificates.
How this problem is solved with Sutton is by allowing you to upload documents directly to orders and batches, so you can centralize your batch record information and any other relevant information, such as:
- Certificates of Analysis
- Supplier documents
- Quality check records
- Lot expiration data
Sutton also allows you to enable serialized inventory, which means if you have products that require individual tracking rather than batch tracking, you can generate and assign a unique ID to each and every item that needs to be tracked with barcode or QR code labels.
With all these features (and more), Sutton gives cannabis manufacturers and distributors all the tools they need to record and maintain a complete audit trail, so they’re ready for anything, such as:
- Recalls
- Regulatory inspections
- Internal reporting without manual record-chasing
Sometimes, what you expected to produce doesn’t align with what you produced, and in cannabis processing the difference in these quantity outputs is referred to as yield loss.
When yield loss is measured, it is usually expressed as a percentage, and by tracking your yield loss you will be able to use these results as a means of monitoring processing efficiency, identifying where material is being lost, and making more accurate planning decisions over time.
If you're looking for cannabis ERP software that can track yield loss, then we recommend checking out Sutton. It’s a tool built to help cannabis manufacturers and distributors get control over their inventory and manufacturing. In Sutton, yield is calculated using the following formula:
Yield % = (Output Quantity ÷ Target Quantity) × 100
So if a processing run was planned to produce 500 units and the actual output was 475, the yield for that run would be 95%.
The gap between that figure and 100% represents your yield loss which is material that was:
- Consumed
- Wasted
- Lost during the production process
