# How Do I Automate Stock Updates as Production Orders Complete?

You automate stock updates by triggering an increase in finished goods inventory the moment a production order is marked complete, without a separate manual entry step. On **Jestor**, this runs through **PCP** connected to finished goods stock.

Updating finished goods stock manually after every completed production run is repetitive work that also risks a delay between actual completion and the stock count reflecting it.

## What manual finished goods updates cost

- Time spent manually entering finished goods stock after every completed run
- A lag between production actually finishing and inventory reflecting it
- Risk of a completed batch being forgotten before its stock update happens
- Sales potentially selling from a stock count that hasn't caught up yet

## How automated stock updates from production work

- A production order marked **complete** triggers an automatic stock increase
- The quantity produced adds to finished goods inventory without manual entry
- This happens immediately, closing the gap between completion and stock accuracy
- Sales sees accurate available stock without waiting for a manual update

## Why Jestor fits this use case

- Automatic updates remove the repetitive manual entry after every production run
- Closing the completion-to-inventory gap keeps stock counts trustworthy
- This prevents the risk of a completed batch being forgotten before it's counted
- This scales from a small production volume to a high-throughput manufacturing line

| Delay, risk of omission     | Triggered on production completion |
