Things to know

• You can set different ordering hours for each order type in Settings > Hours.

Adjust ordering settings

1. In Dutchie E-Commerce admin, navigate to Settings > Ordering.
2. Click on any of the following options to adjust order-related settings:
   • In-Store Pickup
   • Curbside Pickup
   • Drive-Thru Pickup
   • Delivery
   • Kiosk
     
3. To disable any order types you don't offer, select the order type and then uncheck the boxes for both ASAP Ordering and Scheduled Ordering, then click Publish.

Troubleshooting

If you've enabled an order type (i.e., Curbside pickup) but customers can't select it when checking out, check the hours for each order type in the Settings > Hours tab. Confirm they are set correctly, and the current time falls within these hours.

If Scheduled Ordering is enabled, customers will be asked to select a time window for their order at checkout. If the selected time window is outside your specified hours, or if all time slots are filled (if you have Order Limits enabled), customers may not be able to place an order.
