Requirements: Merchant 4.14 through 4.24, OpenUI.

DateSelect will allows you to ask your customer to select a date. You can schedule a delivery date for instance. The selected date is automatically inserted into the Customer email and the Merchant email for confirmation. As an added feature, the module stores data inside a database and a flat file along with other order information so you don't have rely solely on email. Essentially, this is also an order history module.

DateSelect also allows to define "blackout days." You can disable constant days of the week, like Sunday. You can also designate certain days like holidays as blackout days.

Dateselect allows you to compensate for time differences. The module will give you the current time of your server, and you can adjust accordingly. All you need to do is identify an offset in admin. You can configure a cut-off time to prevent the current day or the next day from being selected. You might configure this if your shipping department cannot accept any orders for shipping after certain time during the day.

How this module works:

The DateSelect Calendar Pickbox is basic form. In a standard OpenUI configuration, the basic setup is all that is generally required. The Calendar Pickbox will display in the OSEL screen. You will need to know this If using the VC Other Page Templates for the OSEL screen: Because the pickbox is a form, the screen will be refreshed when a date is picked. If there are any other forms on the page, HTML form elements such as the shipping method, may be lost when the screen is refreshed. It is highly recommended you place the Calendar Pickbox as the first selection item, for example, just before the shipping and payment method listbox.
