By default the order ready time that is sent on Delivery Orders is the time that an order will arrive to the guest. To help simplify orders the understanding of when a driver will arrive Restaurant Partners can leverage the use of a Toast Item Note to Send the Driver Arrival time on the kitchen receipt.
