Create & manage table plan

You have the option of storing a graphical table plan in your POS system and making bookings via the tables created and their table numbers. This creates a better overview for all your employees, be it your service staff or your kitchen staff. The table plan can be freely created and designed according to your ideas. You also have the option of storing a room plan as a background image to make it even easier for your staff to find their way around.

Areas

Area management

Areas help you to subdivide your restaurant. By separating the areas, e.g. restaurant, beer garden and bar, you have a structured overview in the cash register and can also evaluate sales by area, for example. You can decide for yourself whether you want a complete overview of all areas or just a specific area.

Backgrounds for areas

A background image can be used to provide better orientation in the booking interface of the table plan. This allows your service staff to use features as a guide and find their way around the plan more quickly. A background image can be a floor plan or a graphic you have created yourself. (As a rule, the background is only intended for internal use and should serve as support during service)

Linking an area to a cost center

You have the option of linking an area to a cost center. This allows you to separate the areas in the cash register. A waiter can then, for example, open his shift in a cost center and only see the table plan selected for the cost center.

Switch area individually selectable (online widget)

If there are different areas in your business where reservations can be made, e.g. restaurant, beer garden (in summer) and an event room, you can enable the selection of the desired area via the widget during the online reservation process. This allows your guests to enter more precise details when making an online reservation and select the desired area themselves online.

Description of an area

To provide your guests with additional information about the respective areas, you can add further information in the description. The information in the Description column is provided both in the widget and in the emails sent by the system to confirm a reservation/booking.

The Description column is a hidden column and must be shown for editing: Show or hide hidden columns

Example of how to use the description

You can use the additional information to inform your guests: For example, for outdoor areas (e.g. beer garden or terrace), you can indicate that these areas are only available in sufficiently "good" weather, because there may be no rain protection and the area remains closed on such days. This information is visible in the widget when making a reservation/booking and also in the confirmation emails as a note for your guests.

Tables

Table management

There are two different ways to create tables in the system: you can use the quick setup or create individual tables. The table number, shape and seats can be set when adding tables. Subsequent changes to the table plan and the individual tables are possible at any time.

Table arrangement

When you create a table, all tables are first created one after the other. You can of course then drag them to the desired position or place them on the corresponding tables in your background image, for example.

If you only want to use the pick-up service, the table plan does not need to be created or adjusted, as the pick-up area is automatically created by Gastronovi.

Export table codes

The individual codes of the tables for on-site orders via table code can be displayed and exported in the table plan. The tables and table codes can be downloaded as a CSV file for further use, for example, in order to forward them to third-party providers - for the preparation of QR codes or for use in NFC chips for table displays.
