5. Force Scheduling: This feature allows all the orders to be scheduled. Customers can only place orders by scheduling the delivery date and time.
6. Set Day Range for Order Scheduling: In this section, you can define the minimum and maximum schedule days. For example, setting Minimum Schedule Days to 0 and Maximum Schedule Days to 30 means customers can schedule an order starting from today up to 30 days in the future.
7. Set Time Range for Order Scheduling: Here, you can specify the opening and closing times during which customers can schedule their orders.
8. Minimum Schedule Hours From Current Time: This feature allows you to define the minimum time interval required before an order can be scheduled from the current time. For example, setting this value to 2 hours means that users will only be able to schedule an order at least 2 hours ahead from the present moment.
9. Slot Span: This setting allows you to define the duration of each time slot for scheduling orders. For instance, you can set a slot span of 30 minutes, providing customers with convenient options to choose from.
10. Slot Booking: Within Order Scheduling, you have the flexibility to enable or disable slot booking. Enabling slot booking allows you to limit the number of bookings per slot, ensuring a manageable workload for your business. By understanding and configuring these settings, you can effectively utilize the Order Scheduling feature to provide your customers with greater convenience and improve their overall experience on your multi vendor marketplace.
