Before diving into the API reference, it's important to understand the key term we use - Selling Plans
Selling Plans in the context of preorders are configurations that define how a preorder product is sold, billed, and delivered to customers.
Enable merchants to sell products before they're in stock or available for immediate shipping
Define payment schedules, delivery timelines, and inventory management for preordered items
Provide customization options for how preorders appear and function in the storefront
Basic Information: Name, internal reference name, enabled status
Billing Configuration: When and how much to charge (at checkout or later), charge types (percentage or fixed amount)
Delivery Settings: When products will be delivered (exact date or interval after purchase)
Inventory Management: How inventory is reserved and which system manages it
Pricing Options: Discount amounts or percentages for preordered items
UI Customization: Button text, badge styling, shipping information text
Selling plans can be associated with product variants in three ways:
All products in the store
Products in a specific collection
Custom selection of individual variants
Each variant can have custom settings like shipping text and maximum preorder quantity
Selling plans can be configured for specific markets in multi-market stores
Different markets may have different preorder terms or availability
