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.
• You can move table between dining rooms if you decided to add more areas
• If your tables can be merged for larger parties, please set up Table combinations.

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.
