Administrators and managers can use the 'Order & delivery' feature to manage vendor schedules more effectively by pairing order days with expected delivery days. This allows restaurant teams to plan inventory replenishment with greater accuracy, ensuring they receive supplies when needed based on their ordering patterns. Users can assign specific day combinations for each vendor, making it easier to forecast deliveries, avoid stock-outs, and streamline purchasing workflows.

With this feature, you can:

• Align inventory planning with vendor schedules.
• Reduce last-minute ordering and improve stock consistency.

To specify the order and delivery days of a vendor:

• Select Inventory > Vendors. The available vendors appear.

• Select the vendor to set the delivery schedule.

• Click the Order & delivery tab.

• Click Add schedule.

• Select the day when an order is created for that vendor.

• Select the expected day of delivery. For example, if you set the order day as Monday and the delivery day as Wednesday, it indicates that an order created on a Monday is usually delivered on Wednesday of the same week for that vendor.

  

  Note: You cannot set the same combination of order and delivery days multiple times for the same vendor. For example, if you already scheduled an order on Monday with a delivery on Wednesday, you cannot create another order for that vendor with the same Monday–Wednesday pairing.

• Click Save. A success message appears for creating the schedule.

To update the schedule:

• Select Inventory > Vendors. The available vendors appear.
• Select the vendor.
• Click the Order & delivery tab. The existing schedules appear.

To delete the schedule:

• Select Inventory > Vendors. The available vendors appear.

• Click the Order & delivery tab. The existing schedules appear.
• Click the delete icon against the required schedule.
