Order preparations gap is the time between the scheduled pick up to the amount of time it takes to prepare the pickup. In the value field enter a default amount of time (in minutes) that it takes to prepare an order. This allows the employees a significant amount of time before the pick up to prepare the order.
Ex. The average order takes 30 min to prepare, therefor the value should be 30 in order to allow enough time before the pick up.
