By opening the dropdown box for 'Deliver', a list of 6 entries is displayed.
This list is a set of rules to determine how the system will treat an order that is to be picked up or delivered outside the Hours of Operation.
An order can still be placed outside the Hours of Operation, as long as the pickup or delivery is within the Hours of Operation.
'Today No Rollover' means that if the time window for the delivery is outside of the Hours of Operation, the order will not be able to be placed.
'Today With Rollover' means that if the time window for the delivery is outside the Hours of Operation, the order may be placed, but will allow the delivery window to carry over to the next day.
'Next Day' would give the driver a full day in addition to the time window, to complete the delivery.
'Next Weekday' functions the same as 'Next Day', but orders placed on Friday will be due for delivery on Monday.
