The Maintenance Windows tab allows you to create, review, edit, and delete maintenance windows for your organization.
A Maintenance Window is a time period during which your organization’s order system is not available, for example due to technical maintenance or planned system updates.
During an active maintenance window, buyers who try to send messages or orders to your organization receive a predefined maintenance message. Orders placed during this period are not queued and will fail with the configured message.
Maintenance messages can be provided in different languages.
The Maintenance Windows tab shows all your created Maintenance Windows. You can create up to a maximum of 6 Maintenance Windows. The badges on the bottom indicate in which languages the messages are available for this service window.
The time of the Maintenance Window is shown in UTC (Univeral Time Coordinated). The create and edit dialogs also show the corresponding local time for reference.
Maintenance Window cards may also show a status badge, for example Past or In X days, depending on whether the maintenance window has already ended or when the next occurrence starts.
Click New to create a new Maintenance Window.
In the dialog, you can choose between a one-time Maintenance Window or a daily recurring Maintenance Window. Additionally, you must enter a name and a description for the Maintenance Window.
