Finished Goods (FG) Daily Production Counting is the systematic process of recording the quantity of completed, quality-approved products produced each day. It represents the final output of the production process and serves as the official record of what is ready for storage, sales, or delivery to customers. This daily count is typically performed at the end of a shift or production day after all manufacturing and quality inspection activities are completed.

Accurate FG daily production counting is critical for inventory accuracy, production performance monitoring, and business decision-making. It ensures alignment between physical stock and system records, supports reliable customer commitments, and provides essential data for financial reporting and operational analysis.
