What this page is for
Tables lists every table waiters can seat a party at: its name or number, the area it sits in, how many seats it usually offers, and whether it is active or retired. A table always belongs to one area, and through it to one branch.
This page only lists tables; seating a party, moving them, splitting or merging their bill all happen on the floor itself, not here.
Everyone whose role can view the floor and kitchen set-up sees this page. Adding, editing and retiring a table need a role that can manage it.
How to…
How to find tables
Use the filters above the list: Area and Active.
How to add a table
Press New table. See New table.
How to retire or restore a table
Open the row's menu and choose Retire or Restore. A table with a party currently seated at it cannot be retired.
Worked examples
Restaurant and bar
The Acacia Grill & Bar filters Tables by Area Terrace to see T1 through T8, each showing 4 seats, ready for the lunchtime floor plan.
Butchery that also roasts meat
Mama Njeri's Butchery adds a handful of tables for customers waiting while their nyama choma is grilled, each with just 2 seats, since it is a quick stop rather than a sit-down meal.
