Delay billing until shipment

Hello,

I am using the USPS add on module. I would like to accept "pre orders" for a product I will release the end of November. Is there a configuration option either in the zen cart core or the add on module that will postpone billing the customer, until the product is shipped?

Regards,
Ron

You can set your Credit Card Module settings to Authorize versus Authorize and Capture. And then upon shipment capture. You would need to speak with your processor to determine how long the authorization is good.

Is that what you are looking for?
