Creating Locations and Areas

Set up Areas and Locations within the Flourish Facility

Each Flourish facility needs at least one area to designate where inventory and plants are located. You can define locations under areas to track inventory at a more granular error. Flourish submits the Area to the state system (BioTrack/Metrc) for compliance tacking purposes.

The Area Type is used to distinguish functionality used for state reporting such as a plant's stage in cultivation

The same area can be used for the multiple purposes. Example: Room 1 can be used for Veg and Flower. Create one record for each Area Type.
Required Area Types

Area Type

Description

Inventory

Every facility needs at least one inventory area. Often this is is the "Room" that the inventory is located within.

Examples: Warehouse, Freezer, Secure Vault

Clone

This area type is used within the Cultivation module to track plants in the clone or propagation stage. If you are using Flourish's Cultivation module, you must set up at least one vegetative area. This area type is not used by BioTrack users once the BioTrack integration is turned on.

Example: Clone Room

This area type is used within the cultivation module to track plants in the vegetative stage. If you are using Flourish's cultivation module, you must set up at least one vegetative area.

Example: Veg Room

This area type is used within the cultivation module to track mother plants. If you are using Flourish's cultivation module, we recommend creating at least one mother area.

Flowering

This area type is used within the cultivation module to track plants in the flowering stage. If you are using Flourish's cultivation module, you must set up at least one flowering area.

Example: Flower Room 1, Flower Room 2

This area type is used within the cultivation module to track harvested plants. If you are using Flourish's Cultivation module, you must set up at least one harvest area.

Number of Lights in this Area, UOM, and Area in UOM are optional attributes used for reporting within Flourish Analytics.

Add New Location

Locations add an extra layer of granularity for those using Flourish to physically track inventory. Locations are mapped under an existing area, ie Shelf A in Storage Room B. Inventory Area Types are the only Areas that can have Locations in Flourish, meaning you cannot creation locations within cultivation or processing areas.

  1. Navigate to the View Areas table for the facility you want to add the location to
  2. Click the green eye icon under the Locations column for the Area you want to add a Location to
  3. Click Add New Location
  4. Fill out the New Location Name and click Add Location
  5. Congratulations! You have just created a new Location
