A delivery method can be available 24/7, or only on the days and times you choose - handy for options that only run certain days (e.g. local delivery Mon–Wed) or services with day-specific cutoffs.
How to set it
Go to Shipping Rate Groups and open the method (or Add delivery method).
Scroll to Active Days & Times.
Under Schedule, choose Custom instead of Always active (24/7).
Set the days and time windows the method should be available. Times use your store's timezone.
Save.
Example: set Monday–Wednesday only → the method appears at checkout on those days and is hidden the rest of the week.
Related controls in the same section
Turn off on holidays - hide the method on a chosen holiday calendar.
Daily order limit - auto-disable the method once it hits a set number of orders in a day.
Limit unfulfilled orders per method - cap based on your outstanding backlog: once this many orders on this method are still unfulfilled, the method is hidden until you fulfill some. Great for capacity-limited services (delivery slots, made-to-order)
Recurring vs. one-off: this schedule is for a repeating weekly pattern. For a one-off date range (e.g. a shutdown week), use Blackout Dates instead.
