“Ten a day” can now mean ten for Friday
Daily limits can count against the delivery date the customer chooses, not the day they ordered — so a production day fills up honestly.
- ✨ New (Advanced): A product's daily limit can now count against the delivery date the customer picks, rather than the date the order was placed. "Maximum 10 per day" becomes ten for Friday and ten for Saturday, however early those orders arrive.
- ✨ New (Advanced): Variants count separately. Ten medium cakes and fourteen large, from one product — because a large cake is not the same work as a medium.
- ✨ New (Advanced): Delivery and in-store pickup share one daily cap. Ten for Friday is ten across both, not ten of each.
- ✨ New: Shoppers see how many are left for a date, and a date that cannot fit their cart shows as unavailable — so they choose again before building a cart rather than being turned back at checkout.
- ✨ New: The Products table shows a product's most constrained upcoming date — "Fri 14 Nov · 9/10" — instead of a usage percentage, which would read 0% while next Saturday was full.
- 🚀 Improved: The setting travels through bulk edit and CSV as a "Count By" column. A CSV without it imports as order-date counting, exactly as before.
- 🚀 Improved: Cancelling an order returns its capacity to the delivery date it was booked for.
This is the difference between an order limit and a production capacity limit. An order limit describes how many orders you want to take; a capacity limit describes how much you can actually make on a given day. A bakery taking Friday cake orders all week has a Friday problem, not a Monday problem — and counting by order date made Monday look quiet while Friday was already full.
Only the daily limit changes basis. Weekly and monthly limits still count by order date.
