Create transaction row and update inventory from email

Automatically monitor new order messages across Gmail and Google Sheets. Create and update when order emails match, lookup values resolve, or quantities need refreshβ€”so you can update inventory counts, log transaction rows, and calculate net totals without manual bookkeeping.

How this automation protects inventory accuracy

When new order emails match your configured search, delays can cause stock mismatches and messy reconciliation. This automation watches order messages, extracts order details, looks up inventory, and updates sheetsβ€”so your team can keep counts current and records complete.
