ASAP & Pre Orders
The best way to explain how timings work from a franchise and customer perspective is by referencing the diagram below.
Above, an outlet has setup a time slot: 10:00am to 3:45pm.
ASAP is set to 20mins
Preorders is set to 45mins
Delivery Order
Customers can place an ASAP order at any time. Let's assume the customers address is within a delivery zone that is set to 15 mins delivery.
The app or website will clearly highlight 2 things:
- When deliveries/collections start (eg. above would be 10am)
- When the order should be expected (see below)
A customer viewing the site on Monday at 10:00am would see ASAP as available and expected delivery time to be around 10:35am. (20 mins + 15min delivery = ~35mins).
A customer viewing the site on Monday at 8:00am would see ASAP as available and expected delivery time to be around 10:35am. (10:00am + 20 mins + 15min delivery = ~2h 35mins).
A customer viewing the site on Monday at 5:00pm would see ASAP as available and expected delivery time to be Tuesday at 9:50am. (9:15am + 20 mins + 15min delivery).
Collection Orders
Collection order work as above but without adding the delivery portion. eg...
A customer viewing the site on Monday at 8:00am would see ASAP as available and expected collection time to be around 10:20am. (10:00am + 20 mins = ~2h 20mins).
Pre Orders
Customers can now pick from a list of available times for an individual outlet. Preorder times will account for the preorder times set against each time slot. (eg. above 45 mins).
