Configuring Enhanced Dining Tables

Dining tables represent the physical location where a party can be seated with a Quick Seating operation or from the Wait List.

1. Select the property, click Setup, and then click Tables.
2. Select or enter information for the following fields.

   Table 46-9 Tables Fields

   Field	Description
   Table Number (# symbol)	Enter a unique table number for all revenue centers within the property. The Table Number appears on the workstation and represents the internal number used to distinguish one table from another within the property.
   Name	Enter a unique table name for all revenue centers within the property. The table name appears on the workstation and represents the local facing name or number used to differentiate the table from others. Values in the Name field can be: All numeric All alpha Alpha and then numeric
   Class	Select the dining table class. The dining table class defines the type of table. All instances of this table number use the color, image, and cover configurations defined for the selected dining table class. Create only tables that are to be used for seating within a revenue center. Creating non-seatable tables (such as bar tabs) prevents the table suggestion system from properly distributing tables. Do not delete tables unless you no longer need them for reports. Oracle Hospitality recommends that you assign tables that are not used to a dining table class named to indicate this status. For example, create a dining table class named NOT IN USE and assign unused tables to this class. Tables assigned to the NOT IN USE class cannot be used for seating, but remain in the Simphony TMS for reporting purposes.
   Table Attributes	Associate one or more attributes with a table. When you set attributes, the application matches guest preferences with tables. For example, when a guest prefers window seats, tables associated with a window seating attribute move up in the table suggestion process.
