The values configured in the Rule Creation Popup will be automatically prefilled in the Rule configuration page.

Start Date: Leave it empty if you wish to run this rule for an indefinite period.

End Date: Leave it empty if you wish to run this rule for an indefinite period.

Priority: When two or more rules match with the same configuration, then the rule with the lowest priority number will be used.

Number of Days for Pickup Availability: Enter the number of selectable days which is visible to the user.

For Example:

If you set the value as 7, the next available 7 pickup days will be displayed to the user in a calendar. The user will have to select one delivery date.

Pickup Days: Select the days on which you can allow the user to pickup the order. If you leave out a day, take for example Sunday and save the rule, then the users will not be able to select Sunday as the pickup day.

Maximum Orders per Day for Pickup: If you wish to place a restriction on how many orders should be picked up on a day, then enter a value in this option.

If you have entered 5, then only 5 orders can be placed by selecting a same pickup date. These orders can be placed by a single user or multiple users. Once the limit has been reached, that date cannot be chosen as a pickup date.

When enabled, your users will be forced to select a pickup location before placing the order.

If the option is disabled and the user has placed an order without selecting a pickup location, then for those orders the pickup location will not be assigned.
