When a customer makes an with a future delivery date, most businesses might want to fulfill the close to the delivery date rather than right away. This , along with the proceeding time setting, helps facilitate this use case.

Instead, its creation is scheduled to be created a number of hours before the delivery date. This creation reserves the stock to be picked and packed for the , which is thus called reservation time. This this value.
After that, another is scheduled to move the into the awaiting status so that it may start the pick and pack . This is scheduled some hours before the 's delivery date and is called the proceeding time.
