If you're a partner using the Tableside and Register (Beta) apps for your dining service, you can now enhance your management with the Table Map feature. This tool allows you to efficiently manage your sections and tables. Please note that only tables created through this feature will be visible on both the Tableside and Register (Beta) apps, so be sure to use it for all your table management needs.
How Do I Set Up Tables And Sections With Table Map?
To efficiently use the Table Map feature for your dine-in service on Tableside and Register (Beta), follow these enhanced steps:
Access Your Dashboard
Go to your Snackpass dashboard: Snackpass Dashboard.Navigate to Table Editor
From the left menu, select SETTINGS > BACK OF HOUSE and then TABLE EDITOR.
Create Your Section
When you click on the Table Editor tab, a pop-up will prompt you to name your section. This represents a designated region in your restaurant that contains a group of tables, such as sections or different levels.
Example: Name it "Main Dining Room" and click CREATE SECTION.
Add Tables
At the bottom of the map, you'll find a section with table shapes and layout options for barriers and labels. To add a table, click on the desired table shape and then tap on the canvas to place it. Once added, you'll be prompted to input the table number and the number of seats.
Adjust Table Placement And Size
Once added, you can drag tables to reposition them. Use the corner indicators on each shape to resize the tables as needed.
Repeat For All Tables
Repeat the previous steps for each table, making sure to enter the correct information for each one. Once added, each table will display its corresponding number at the center of the shape.
Add Barriers And Labels
For specific areas, such as a Drinks Station, select the rectangle and label shapes right next to Layout. Position them on the map as needed. Since barriers cannot be labeled, use the label shapes to clearly identify these areas.
Save Your Configuration
When you're finished, click SAVE SECTION in the upper right corner of the screen.
Once saved, all your new tables will be available for use in both the Tableside and Register (Beta) apps.
Visualization Of Sections And Tables On Tableside and Register (Beta)
After adding your sections and tables, you can visualize them on your Register (Beta) and Tableside apps.
It's important to note that while sections are visible on the Register (Beta) app, Tableside does not distinguish between them. To avoid confusion, we recommend using unique table numbers or names.
Register (Beta)
In the Register (Beta) app, your sections will be displayed at the top. You can choose the ALL view to see tables from all sections or select specific sections using the corresponding tabs.
Additionally, the Register (Beta) app features a map function. Click the square icon in the upper right corner of the main screen to access your sections maps visually. From this view, you can easily select tables and start orders.
For more detailed information, please refer to the Register (Beta) article on the Help Center.
Tableside
The Tableside app presents a simplified view where customers must enter and select a table number. Keep in mind that sections are not visible in this app; only individual tables can be selected.
Key Notes
Adding New Sections
You can create multiple sections on the Table Map. To add a new section, go to the top of the Table Editor map and click the +NEW SECTION button. This will prompt you to enter a name for the new section.
Resizing Areas
You can easily resize entire sections of your table map. Click and hold on the map to select an area, then release to display the size indicators in the corners. You can then adjust the dimensions as needed.
Editing Sections Information
To edit or add details for any secitons, go to the Table Editor and click on the table, section, barrier, or label you wish to modify. From there, you can rename it, adjust the guest capacity, resize it, delete them and more. Remember to save your changes before navigating away from the dashboard.
To delete tables, barriers, and labels, simply click on each item, and you'll see the DELETE button. To delete an entire section, click the three dots in the top-right corner of the section and select DELETE.
Unique Table Numbering
While sections are distinguished on the Register (Beta) app, this feature is not available on Tableside. To avoid confusion, we recommend assigning unique table numbers for each section you create. For example, if your Main Dining Room has tables numbered 1 to 5, avoid using the same numbering for another section you create.
