# Limit orders

## **Limit orders**

Limit orders based on pickup slots (pickup date & time), not by the date & time on which the orders were placed.

Depending on the limitation of your resources, this ensures you only promise to pickup a certain number of orders per day/ time slot.

Once you have reach the limit for that day, the day will be counted as a Blackout date (holiday) and will push the remaining prep time/delivery time forward.&#x20;

If you have to handle too many order requests during your high peak time or high seasons like Christmas or Black Friday, **limiting the number of pickup per time slot** is a good choice.&#x20;
