the shipment doesnt contain anywhere to store the expected delivery date, so i am unable to build any logic off of it.

  • I think we should start with a shipped timestamp which is set on send transition.

    The changed timestamp should be kept distinct from the shipped timestamp, as you may make edits to the shipment before you send it.

    I also think it would be good to add a delivered timestamp which is set on a new deliver transition.

    Then websites that use carrier webhooks or paying for updates can set delivered timestamps accordingly in their own code.

    I think the original issue would better be handled by trying to support the major carriers in callbacks to get those times dynamically.

    In my opinion the time slot can be added an another feature for the module because not many shipping providers around the world provides the time slot facility for the shipment. They just provide the estimated delivery date. So, maybe we can work on the estimated delivery date in the issue and create another one for the timeslot with the settings to enable this feature.
