## Background | ||
|
||
While conducting some internal training earlier this week, one of our TSRs asked: "Is updating inventory where the blue circle just spins and spins but doesn't appear to do anything?" | ||
### Fall 2022 | ||
|
||
In the fall of 2022, while conducting some internal training, one of our TSRs asked: | ||
|
||
> “Is updating inventory where the blue circle just spins and spins but doesn’t appear to do anything?” | ||
> | ||
> “Yes,” was my deflated reply. | ||
Shortly thereafter, we implemented **Inventory Update Progress with swiftDialog**. | ||
|
||
Later that same year, we introduced **Jamf Pro Self Service racing stripes when using Installomator with swiftDialog**. | ||

|
||
Fast-forward to Groundhog Day of 2024, I logged into a test Mac mini to update its OS and was greeted by not _one_, not _two_, not _four_, but **three** pending updates: | ||
|
||
1. Mozilla Firefox | ||
1. Google Chrome | ||
1. Adobe Acrobat Reader | ||
|
||
"Yes," was my deflated reply. | ||
I watched as **inventory** was needlessly submitted **after each and every update**, _just like I told it to_. | ||
|
||
Hopefully after implementing this script, you'll never have to be asked that question again. | ||

> Version `0.0.7` modifies the Script Parameter Label for `scriptLog` — changing it to a hard-coded variable in the script (as it should have been all along) — Sorry for any Dan-induced headaches. | ||
