Order policy tab
Restrict adding / editing before start date?
Specify if users are allowed to add / edit orders. By clicking Yes, you restrict adding or editing to a period before the order's start date-time.

Users can only cancel orders that have a status that is specified here.
If you leave this field empty, users will not be allowed to cancel an order.
Time within parent reservation?
Select Yes to restrict adding catering orders before or after the main reservation's start and end time. If this means that the catering order occurs outside the parent reservation time, a warning message will be shown to the end user. The catering start and end time will be adjusted so that it remains within the parent reservation's time frame.
If the reservation's start time is moved to two hours later, the catering will also start two hours later.
Example: a reservation starts at 9:00 and ends at 16:00. The catering is ordered at 12:00. If the reservation is moved to 11:00 hours, the catering is automatically moved forward to 14:00 hours.
If you adjust the reservation's end time, for example to 14:00 hours (the reservation is now scheduled from 11:00 to 14:00), this means that the catering order would be delivered after the reservation's end time. Hence, the start and end time of the catering order are also adjusted to keep it within the reservation's time frame.
