# Enhancing the Date Picker with AM/PM Delivery Slots

This enhancement adds **AM/PM delivery slots** to the Date Picker module.

<p class="callout warning">Note: The Date Picker module is a chargeable feature and requires **NCompass Engineer Area Management** AND **WebPresence Delivery Datepicker Modules** to function.</p>

<p class="callout info">If you do not currently offer delivery dates on your website but wish to start doing so, please contact the admin team by clicking the provided button [link](mailto:admin@findesolutions.com?subject=Datepicker/Engineer%20Area%20Management%20Interest&body=Hi,%0D%0A%0D%0AI%20wish%20to%20register%20my%20interest%20in%20NCompass%20Engineer%20Area%20Management,%20and%20Delivery%20dated%20availability%20services%20on%20my%20website.%0D%0A%0D%0AKindest%20Regards,%0D%0A%5BCOMPANY%20NAME%5D).</p>

#### Before You Begin

- If you do not have the Date Picker set up, please follow the setup documentation before continuing.  
    Reach out to <support@findesolutions.com> to obtain the most up-to-date setup guide.
- If you already have the Date Picker installed and are familiar with configuring shipping options in NCompass, you can proceed with the steps below.

#### Step 1: Navigate to Shipping Options

1. Open **NCompass**.
2. Go to **Field Calls &gt; Shipping Options**.

You should already see existing services such as **AM** and **PM** delivery options (if previously set up).

#### Step 2: Create Additional AM/PM Services (if needed)

If you’d like to add new AM/PM delivery services:

1. Duplicate an existing service, such as **Next Day Delivery** or **Anytime**.
2. Rename the duplicated service to represent the new time slot (e.g., *Next Day AM* or *Next Day PM*).
3. Associate a new **delivery product** with each new shipping option you create.

#### Step 3: Configure “Schedule As”

Within the **Shipping Option Detail** tab:

1. Locate the **Schedule As** field.
2. Select the appropriate option:
    
    
    - **AM Anytime**
    - **PM Anytime**

This ensures the slot is categorised correctly.

#### Step 4: Result on the Website

Once configured:

- The **new AM/PM delivery options** will appear alongside existing shipping methods at checkout.
- **Availability logic**:
    
    
    - **AM/PM slots** are only offered if engineers are available for those slots in NCompass.
    - The **Anytime option** always appears, as long as there are delivery points available for that day.
