    Table Status Description

    Select

    The application uses this decorator when a workstation operator selects one or more tables. Table selection is only available on a page with the Host Command Area. Table selection allows the workstation operator to apply a specific action to the selected tables.

    Dirty

    The application uses this decorator when a table is in a status of Dirty. Workstation operators can still seat guests at dirty tables.

    Seated

    The application uses this decorator when a guest is newly seated at a table. This status remains until the guest places an order. After placing an order, the table status changes to Occupied.

    Occupied

    The application uses this decorator after a guest places an order at the table. This status remains until the guest tenders the check.

    The image associated with the Occupied status is overridden when you set images for dining courses.

    Configuring KDS or Dining Course Colors and Images for Table Management contains more information about setting dining course images.

    Printed

    The application uses this decorator when the workstation operator prints the guest check. The table is considered occupied, and the Printed status appears in addition to the Occupied status.

    Paid

    The application uses this decorator after a guest completes the dining experience and tenders the check. This status remains for the duration of time set in the Auto Reset Paid Status (Minutes) field. Host staff can seat new guests at tables marked as Paid. After a host seats a guest at a Paid table, the table status resets.

    Parent

    The application uses this decorator to identify the table as the parent table in a merged table grouping. This status appears in addition to the other status indicators.

    Child

    The application uses this decorator to identify the table as the child table in a merged table grouping. This decorator includes a text overlay that identifies the child’s parent table number and name. The application clears both Parent and Child decorators when the workstation operator removes the merged table grouping.

    Closed

    The application uses this decorator to indicate a status of Closed. Host staff cannot seat guests at closed tables.

    Reserved

    The application uses this decorator to indicate a status of Reserved. The Table Suggestion process does not consider reserved tables for seating.

    User Suggested

    The application uses this decorator to identify the table as the host staff recommended seating placement for the highlighted table request on the Wait List.

    System Suggested

    The application uses this decorator to identify the table as the system recommended seating placement for the highlighted table request on the Wait List.

    Highlighted

    Do not use this decorator.

    Host Area

    This image is not a table decorator, but an optional image placement for the Host Command Area. You can use this image to place the restaurant logo on the host page.
