Configure POS delivery options
On this page
The POS delivery workflow includes two optional fields that are hidden by default: a requested delivery date picker and a shipping notes field for special delivery instructions. You can enable either or both fields, and optionally make them required, using store variables.
For general information on adding store variables, see Store variables.
Optional delivery fields
| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| Requested delivery date | Displays a date picker on the delivery address form. Staff can record the customer’s preferred delivery date. The minimum selectable date is today. |
| Shipping notes | Displays a free-text field for special delivery instructions, up to 10,000 characters. |
Values entered in these fields are saved to the Cart Fulfillment record and copied to the Shipment record when the order is completed.
Configure requested delivery date
To enable the requested delivery date field, add a store variable with:
- Key:
pos.delivery.requested_delivery_date.enabled - Value:
true
To make the field required before a delivery can be confirmed, add a second variable:
- Key:
pos.delivery.requested_delivery_date.required - Value:
true
:::note
Setting required to true has no effect unless enabled is also set to true.
:::
Configure shipping notes
To enable the shipping notes field, add a store variable with:
- Key:
pos.delivery.shipping_notes.enabled - Value:
true
To make the field required before a delivery can be confirmed, add a second variable:
- Key:
pos.delivery.shipping_notes.required - Value:
true
:::note
Setting required to true has no effect unless enabled is also set to true.
