Control when your plan is active and how many units can be preordered.
i) Availability Schedule
Set when customers can start (and optionally stop) placing preorders.
- Start date & time – Choose when the plan becomes active on your store.
• End date & time (optional) – Automatically stops accepting preorders after this point.
- Turn off the toggle to skip scheduling — the plan starts immediately and runs indefinitely.
When both an end date and a quantity limit (next field) are set, the plan will end as soon as either condition is met. Learn how availability and quantity settings work together to decide when the preorder ends.
ii) Preorder Quantity Limits
Limit how many units can be sold under this plan, helpful for controlling supply and avoid overselling risk.
- Enter a number in the Custom limit field (e.g., 100) — this applies per product or variant in the plan.
Note: If the plan is associated at the product level, the limit is checked against the total number of units ordered across all variants of that product.
If it's associated at the variant level, the limit is enforced separately for each variant.
- Turn off the toggle to allow unlimited preorders.
