The OrderRules dashboard gives you a real-time view of your store's order capacity. Everything you need is accessible from this single screen.

At the top of the dashboard, you will see your current store status:

OPEN -- your store is currently accepting orders
CLOSED -- orders are blocked (outside business hours, limit reached, or special date)

The card also shows the reason for closure and the next opening or closing time.

If you have limits configured, the dashboard displays up to three capacity cards:

Shows your weekly order count versus your weekly limit with percentage used.

Shows your monthly order count versus your monthly limit.
