Add the pickup later attribute using attribute rules and conditions

It is highly recommended to add required attributes directly to your data source for accuracy and data management. Attribute rules can be used to supplement your existing product data. Conditions can be added in front of an operation to filter items in your feed that meet certain criteria of your choosing. You can use conditions to apply the pickup later attribute to a subset of products.

The following steps will apply pickup SLA [pickup_SLA] attribute to a subset of your items in your data source. You should only include the pickup later attribute for products that are available for pickup later. If there are differences between your stores, we recommend adding this information in your inventory data.
