Delivery calendar

Settings used to calculate the arrival estimate badge on product pages. The estimate is based on the days you don’t dispatch and the same-day dispatch cutoff. For how to place the badge, see Delivery promise.

In the theme editor, open Theme settings → Delivery calendar.

  • Store timezone: Usually leave as Asia/Tokyo. If it differs from Settings → General in the admin, the badge is hidden (default: Asia/Tokyo).
  • Same-day dispatch cutoff: Orders after this hour are calculated as shipping the next business day. Choose from 0 to 23 (default: 15h).

Public holidays ship with the theme (generated and diffed against the Cabinet Office data). Only add closures that are not public holidays.

  • No dispatch on Sunday: On by default.
  • No dispatch on Monday: Off by default.
  • No dispatch on Tuesday: Off by default.
  • No dispatch on Wednesday: Off by default.
  • No dispatch on Thursday: Off by default.
  • No dispatch on Friday: Off by default.
  • No dispatch on Saturday: Off by default.
  • Additional closure days: YYYY-MM-DD, separated by newlines or commas (for example, 2026-08-13). Public holidays are already included.
  • Year-end closure start (MM-DD): May wrap the new year (for example, 12-29 to 01-03). It repeats every year, so you don’t need to set it each year (default: 12-29).
  • Year-end closure end (MM-DD): The last day of the closure (default: 01-03).
  • Dates to drop from the holiday table: YYYY-MM-DD for days a law change stopped being a public holiday. Normally left empty.
  • Let customers request a delivery date and time slot: The choice is saved as order attributes. Showing it in confirmation emails requires editing the email template (default: off).
  • Latest selectable day (from the earliest arrival): Choose from 1 to 30 days. Yamato caps requests at 7 days after dispatch, so match the carrier you use (default: 7 days). Only shown when “Let customers request a delivery date and time slot” is on.
  • Selectable time slots: Comma separated. The defaults work with Yamato, Sagawa, and Japan Post. 12-14 (Sagawa, Japan Post) and 18-21 (Sagawa) also work; other values are dropped (default: am,14-16,16-18,18-20,19-21). Only shown when “Let customers request a delivery date and time slot” is on.
