This article shows how to schedule out a product to become available for a specific production day.

Many merchants want to schedule products to become available for weeks, months, or maybe even years into the future. To do that, Bottle has a unique widget within each product (inside of the Store) that allows you to schedule products out so that they become available for a specific production day.

  • Review your product categories and the list of upcoming production days.

• Scheduling Products for Specific Days

  • Select an upcoming production day (e.g., the 13th).
  • Add products to be available on that specific day.
  • Repeat the process for other production days (e.g., the 20th).

• Viewing Scheduled Products

  • Click on 'All' to see products scheduled for different days.
  • Observe separate menus for each scheduled day (e.g., the 13th and the 20th).

• Checking Product Availability in the Store

  • Start a new order in the store to see available products.
  • Verify that available products match the scheduled production day.
  • Note the cutoff time for each slot's availability (e.g., December 12th at 9 AM).

• Understanding Product Rotation

  • Old products become unavailable after their cutoff time.
  • New products appear in the store following when the slots associated with their production day become available.
