How Do I Add/Edit/Delete Scheduled Ordering Periods?

The Scheduled Ordering Calendar lets you manage ordering periods for users to order gift cards. An ordering period is a time frame in which users are allowed to order gift cards (program administrators usually use weekly or bi-weekly ordering). Order periods are referenced throughout Scrip Manager by their order due date. Each order period also contains a payment date and a delivery/pickup date.

Note: Only the order due date controls when users can place orders — the payment and delivery dates are informational only. Times are displayed and entered using the 24-hour clock.
