# Date Limit

You can set date-wise limits on products with this feature. Instead of setting limits for each day of the week, you can set limits based on specific dates. 

This feature is especially helpful for seasonal businesses, as it ensures their products are available to customers.

So now, let's look at some use cases to understand the functionality of this feature more easily.

<figure><img src="https://922942541-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FIGRcMuVZCEGNibOl1OmW%2Fuploads%2FNPYa33PQJi7fXJw8ONBa%2Fimage.png?alt=media&amp;token=76941204-7d35-4124-a55b-ee5f799c5f12" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

#### Step 5: Test the Configuration

1. Open your Shopify storefront.
2. Add a product with the configured tag to the cart.
3. Try placing an order that reaches or exceeds the configured limit.
4. Check whether the storefront applies the configured restriction as expected.

**Important:** The actual limit behavior depends on the rule settings available in your app. Test the configuration before making it available to customers.

### Example

Suppose you sell products tagged with `summer-collection` and want to control orders for these products during a promotional period.

You can configure a date-based product tag limit for the applicable tag and set the required date range and limit values. Products carrying that tag will be subject to the configured rule, according to the app's limit behavior.

**Note:** The example is illustrative. Use a tag and limit values that match your store's requirements.

## Date Variant Limit

The **Date Variant Limit** feature allows you to configure order limits for specific product variants during a selected date range.

Shopify products can have multiple variants, such as different sizes, colors, or materials. This feature helps you manage orders for specific variants according to your store's requirements during a defined period.

For example, if a product is available in Small, Medium, and Large sizes, you may need to control orders for a particular size without applying the same rule to every variant.

### How to Configure Date Variant Limit

Follow the steps below to configure a date-based variant limit.

#### Step 1: Navigate to Date Limit

1. Open the **Date Limit** section.
2. Locate the available limit configuration tabs.
3. Click **Date Variant Limit** to configure limits for product variants.

1. Open the variant limit configuration.
2. Select the relevant product or variant using the available selection options.

The selected variant will be subject to the configured rule according to the app's supported limit behavior.

**Note:** The example is for illustration only. The exact result depends on the available settings and limit rules in your app.
