Optimizely <<product-name>>'s Admin Console admins can allow website customers the option to request the date that their order will be fulfilled, whether pick up or delivery. The maximum length of time allowed for future delivery can be customized to match existing business workflows.

Note

This functionality is turned off by default.

When a customer is checking out, the **Review and Pay** page displays the option to request a specific date.

After the order has been submitted, the requested delivery or pickup date is displayed on the order confirmation below the fulfillment method and is also shown on the **Order Details Page** (**Admin Console** \> **Sales** \> **Cart History** \> **Details** finger tab).
