As the `jaffle_shop` business gains more customers, and those customers create more orders, you will see more records added to your source data. Because you materialized the `customers` model as a table, you'll need to periodically rebuild your table to ensure that the data stays up-to-date. This update will happen when you run a job.

1. After creating your deployment environment, you should be directed to the page for new environment. If not, select **Deploy** in the upper left, then click **Jobs**.
2. Click **Create one** and provide a name, for example "Production run", and link to the Environment you just created.
3. Scroll down to the **Execution Settings** section:
* Under "Commands," add this command as part of your job if you don't see it:
* `dbt build`
* Select **Generate docs on run**.
4. For this exercise, do _not_ set a schedule for your project to run — while your organization's project should run regularly, there's no need to run this example project on a schedule. Scheduling a job is sometimes referred to as _deploying a project_.
5. Select **Save**, then click **Run now** to run your job.
6. Click the run and watch its progress under "Run history."
7. Once the run is complete, click **View Documentation** to see the docs for your project.
