In some businesses like bakery shops where they want their customers to choose the delivery time along with the delivery date for the orders, but also they want that the time should be selected from the time slots they have set for the delivery. This feature is useful for such type of businesses.

You can achieve this setting under Order Delivery Date -> General Settings -> Time Slot.

If your time slots for delivery are 10.30 to 12.30 and 2.30 to 4.30, for the first time slot select the time as shown below.

A time-slot delivery system helps you reduce the number of missed or failed deliveries and achieve a higher First Attempt Delivery Rate. By delivering at the customer’s preferred delivery window, you not only improve customer satisfaction but also save the added costs involved in storing, shipping, and delivering undelivered parcels.

To allow customers to choose the time slot on the checkout page you first need to enable the Enable Time slot capture checkbox. If this checkbox is disabled then the time slot dropdown will not be shown on the checkout page.
