Why update stock on delivery?
Because low-stock alerts, margin reports and shrinkage detection all measure against the stock count, so keeping it current keeps them accurate.
Should I update on arrival or later?
On arrival. Updating promptly stops the shelf drifting away from what the system thinks you have.
