How It Supports the Fulfillment Stack

• Store Pickup uses the hours/blackout data to validate time-slot selection and enforce lead-time rules.

• Distance Delivery references the same location data to select origin facilities, limit service areas, and compute routing.

• Kitchen and Driver PWAs read the location registry to identify prep facilities, display address snapshots, and calculate run grouping.

• Reschedule tools (admin and PWA) rely on Store Locator to present accurate future slots.

Admin Experience Highlights

• Location Grid: Filter by status, city, province, or tag; export-ready columns; inline edit for quick tweaks.

• Location Form: Organized tabs for General Info, Google Map, Pickup Hours, Delivery Hours, Blackout Dates, Notes.

• System Config: Dedicated section under Toweringmedia menu for API credentials, fallback hours, and feature toggles.

• ACL & Menus: Fine-grained permissions so operations teams can manage hours without touching checkout or sales settings.
