Advanced Global Prep Time Settings
Advanced Prep Times can be used to change your Prep Time for specific days of the week or hours of the day, as well as for single calendar dates.
This can be useful if you have certain times of day when it will take longer to prepare food or dates when you know you will have longer wait times for customers!
