Makes sense. We need to continuously monitor the performance of the model deployed in the field with our preexisting statistical knowledge of the data and then accordingly schedule regular "model updates".
It's best to transform your target variables, like "number of orders", to "number of orders per customer per day" or something like that. And then in your pipeline, you feed the latest estimate on your number of customers (e.g. average of the last two weeks). That's way more robust over time.
