Here are the steps for getting this done.
- First find the fulfillment method you want these slots to exist under
- Then click the "+fulfillment slot" button to open the fulfillment slot creation screen
- Fill out your information as desired
- Place the fulfillment slot on the first day of the period you want to cover
- Click the switch next to the "Scheduler"
- The scheduler works as follows:
- Repeat Every
- the interval the slot duplicates on
- For this far into the future
- How far ahead of the fulfillment date the slot will be duplicated
- This is not how many weeks the slot will duplicate for. All slots duplicate indefinitely until made to stop
- Repeat Every
- Select the interval you want the slot to duplicate on whether it's days or weeks
- Then enter the appropriate amount of days or weeks ahead of today (the day you are doing this) the target end date.
- For example: If the last slot you want to exist is for 12/25 and you are creating the slots on 11/28, there are 27 days between those dates. You would enter "27" in the second field.
- Once you've done this, click save to generate the slots
- Then to prevent the slots from duplicating further:
- Find the final slot in the sequence and click on it
- Click the unlock button in the scheduler section
- Click the switch to turn off the duplicator
- Since all other slots have already duplicated, turning off the final slot from duplicating will stop further duplications!
