Configuring the Standard Dining Table Status Set

You can configure a dining table status set to allow workstation operators to manually assign a specific table status value from the set. For example, dining tables could be used to begin new takeout orders. Workstation operators can update the status of the table based upon the readiness of the order (such as Preparing, Ready, or Called Running Late).

This feature is only available with standard dining tables (not enhanced or integrated tables).

  1. Select the Enterprise, property, or revenue center, click Setup, and then click Dining Table Status Set.
  2. Insert a record for the Dining Table Status Set, and then open it in form view.
  3. Click Add, and then enter or select information for the fields as described in the following table.
