Steps
Opt in to scheduled ordering for the location via the Merchant Data API settings
Receive the order in ANTICIPATED status when a diner books a future time slot
Wait for Grubhub's automatic transition to RESTAURANT_CONFIRMABLE at promise-time minus the configured prep/pickup window
Subscribe to the webhook fired at that status transition to trigger kitchen prep
Confirm the order once it reaches RESTAURANT_CONFIRMABLE, following the same confirm flow as an immediate order
Known gotchas
Diners can still cancel a scheduled order while it's in ANTICIPATED status, so don't start prep before the confirmable transition
The default pre-order confirm window is roughly 4 hours before promise time — confirm your location's configured window rather than assuming the default
Scheduled ordering must be explicitly enabled per location; it isn't on by default for every merchant
