Tables and kitchen ​

For restaurants and cafés with table service. Turn on the Table service feature first; it needs Kitchen tickets. See Settings, staff and features.

Draw the floor plan ​

  1. Open Owner › Settings › Floor plan.
  2. Choose New room, name it, and choose Add the room.
  3. In the room, enter a Table name and its Seats, then choose Add the table.

A room or a table you no longer use can be switched off.

Serve a table ​

  1. Open Floor on the selling screen, or on a waiter phone. The top of the screen shows the tables taken, the covers seated, the open bills and the average time at a table.
  2. Tap a free table, enter the number of covers, and choose Open the table.
  3. Add products. Give a line a Course if the dishes come in several services.
  4. Choose Send. The new lines go to the kitchen. A line already sent cannot be changed.
  5. When the table is ready for the next course, choose Fire course.
  6. Choose Bill to print the bill, then take the payment as for any sale. The bill can be split.

Each table shows its state:

To move an order, choose Change and pick the new table. Pick a taken table to merge the two orders. Remove the order discount before merging.

A line reaches the kitchen only if its product or its category goes to a printer or a station. Set it on the category, under Order lines go to.

The kitchen screen ​

The kitchen screen shows the orders to prepare, by table and by course, under In progress and Ready.

  • Start marks an order as being prepared.
  • Ready marks an item, or the whole order, as ready.
  • Recall brings back an order marked ready by mistake.

Filter by station when the kitchen has several. The screen shows the average time to ready for the day.

Settings for tables ​

In Owner › Settings › Till and selling, the Tables and kitchen card sets:

  • Tables to clean after payment: whether a paid table waits to be freed.
  • Long time at a table: the table is flagged after this many minutes.
  • Late order in the kitchen: the ticket is flagged in the kitchen after this many minutes.
