How to Access Dining Room and Table Settings:
-
Visit admin.tablein.com and log in to your account.
-
Go to the "Dining Rooms and Tables" settings section.
-
Manage Floors (Upcoming Feature): This feature will soon enable you to:
- Switch between different floors in the table plan.
- Filter reservations by floor in the reservation book.
- Quickly disable a floor during off-seasons (e.g., disable outdoor tables after summer).
- You can now add new floors and rooms, and they will be visible in the system's overall calendar list.
Log in to the system via admin.tablein.com and go to the Dining rooms and tables settings.
Once in the settings, you will see floors. This is a new feature that will allow you to switch between floors in the table plan in the future, filter in the reservation book, and quickly disable a floor during the off-season, for example, to disable outdoor tables after the season. You can now add new floors and rooms, which will be visible in the system's overall calendar list.
Edit Existing Tables:
- To edit tables on an existing floor, click "Edit" to enter the rooms and tables settings.
Add a New Dining Room:
- At the top right of the page, click "Add Dining Room."
- Enter the room title.
- Choose whether to allow online reservations for this room.
- Decide if you want to minimize this room in the calendar (recommended to keep it enabled for regular work). More information and an example can be found at the bottom of this page.
- Click "Save."
Add Tables
- Click Add Table at the bottom of the list.
- Enter the table name.
- Enter the number of seats. For example, a table for two can be set from 1 to 2, and a table for four can be set from 3 to 4 or from 2 to 4.
- Choose whether you want to allow online reservations
(note: if the restaurant room does not accept online reservations, the system will not allow it even if set to YES in the settings). - (Optional) Choose the table shape. Once a new table layout is added, you won’t need to select the shape again. Note: You can now move tables from one room to another.
Deleting Tables or Dining areas
The updated system does not allow you to delete a table if there are any upcoming reservations. To delete a table, first, disable online reservations and rename the table, for example, to DELETE. Review upcoming reservations and reassign them to another table.
Archiving a dining room
When you choose to archive a hall, it will no longer be visible in the calendar, filter, or table plan. This is particularly useful for seasonal halls and outdoor tables. When the season returns, simply unarchive the hall to make it visible again.
Minimize in calendar
In the calendar view, this feature reduces the dining room to just its name, requiring you to click on the dining room's name to view its details. It is recommended to use this feature for areas that are not in use during the off-season.
