Improve the Subscription Synchronization field

[nydibs]

Please consider splitting up the behavior of the Subscription Synchronization field. Currently, when you choose a day it will create the order and start the payment process on the day but will also display that day on the product page.

The problem with this is I want to deliver my orders on a Wednesday but create the orders and start the billing process on a Sunday. But, if I choose Sunday for the synchronization field it confuses my customers because my product pages will automatically imply I deliver on Sundays. I can't find a way around this.

My preference would be to use the Synchronization field for back office order and payment processing (with no visibility to the customer) and have a separate way to manage the UI for billing or delivery information.

This issue causes a lot of problems for me such as when I want to start the payment process and generating timely reports regarding how many orders I have. I want to generate these reports on Monday but have to wait until delivery day to do so.

Thank you!
