Delivery Date Settings

In the section, there are multiple delivery date configurations. You can set up the settings to ensure timely deliveries of the orders to the customers.

We will guide you through the process of configuring all delivery date settings:

Step 1: Required date setting

• You can make the date selection mandatory with this setting. This will not let the customer proceed to the cart page, if a delivery date is not selected.

Step 2: Delivery Date Option

1. Delivery Date Label - you can change the delivery date label on the calendar.

2. Required Error Label - you can change the required date error label.

3. Cut Off Time - orders placed after the cut-off time will be processed the next day

4. Delivery Lead Time - you can provide same day delivery to your customers or can configure it by adding delivery lead time according to your requirements.

1. Delivery Date Label

The Delivery Date Label can be updated as per your needs. You can add text like – “Please choose Delivery Date” or "Select your order delivery date"

2. Required Error Label

You can change or update the required date error label, so the customer is informed to choose a date before proceeding to the checkout.

3. Cut Off time

You can use this setting to define when customers can place orders for the same day and the next day.

• Before the cutoff time → Customers can place orders for same-day delivery or pickup.

• After the cutoff time → Orders will be scheduled for the next day instead.

This helps streamline the ordering process based on your preferred time limits.

Example:

Let’s say you run a florist shop offering both pickup and delivery. You’ve set the cutoff time to 4:00 PM IST.

• If a customer places an order at 3:50 PM IST, they qualify for same-day delivery.

• If the order is placed at 4:10 PM IST, it will be scheduled for next-day delivery instead.

4. Delivery Lead Time

With this setting, you can manage the order shipping and delivery process. This setting works in conjunction with Cut off time.

Example:

If a store has a 2-day delivery lead time and a customer places an order on Monday:

Before cut off time - The order will be delivered on Wednesday

After cut off time - The order will be delivered on Thursday

If you accept same-day delivery, then the delivery lead time will be 0.
