- Prep Time is your average preparation & cooking time from when the kitchen receives the order until it is put together, packaged/bagged, and ready to leave the door (e.g. 15 minutes)
- Delivery Time is your driving time (e.g. 5 miles away would take about 10-15 minutes)
- Delivery Time (in minutes) indicates on-average how long it takes your driver(s) to arrive at a location in this zone. This will be added to your prep time when quoted to the customer to give an accurate ETA based on how long it takes to prepare the order + deliver it.
Time Selector Appearance
When customers select delivery and enters their address, they are shown a range of the soonest possible ETA - the latest possible ETA depending on: Prep Time + Delivery Zone Time + Dollar Lockout (if the order is greater than $50) + Dynamic Prep Time (if you’re exceptionally busier than usual) + Additional Item Level Prep Time (if you have any)

Future Delivery
Future delivery orders will give them a time stamp of the mid-point of the time range they selected. This is an estimation of how long it would take on average to be delivered to them, considering the range they chose.
Printed Receipts
Kitchen/Order copy & Customer/Payment copy
ASAP Delivery
Will print the mid-point of their quoted range. All ASAP orders should be prepared ASAP (as soon as possible!) - not based on the time on the ticket.

Will also print the mid-point of the time range they selected just as their emailed receipt does. This is an estimation of how long it would take on average to be delivered to them, considering the range they chose.
