Overview

The Floor Management lets you manage the sections of your restaurant. It gives you an instant overview of your table plan. From this information, you can have information on your table status, the number of customers seated at the tables, the number of tables available and the step at which the customers stand in their meal. With that information, you can use the Floor Management to seat the customers according to the number of people in the group and to whether they are smoking or non-smoking. You can also put customers on wait if there is no available table at the present time. The Floor Management module is a very powerful tool that will assist your hostess in managing the tables and the congestion at your restaurant entrance. In order to access this module, click on the Floor Management icon on the screen of the Back-Office or of the module you are in.

Sequence of Events in Floor Management Set Up

The following section explains how to set up the database in the Floor Management. It is important to follow the correct sequence of events in setting up the system because each module builds on the other. We explain each of those steps in this manual. Depending on the time of the day or the week, your tables available might be different. For example, even if you have the same amount of server, you don't use the same section configuration for lunch and dinner or when the terrace is open or not.

Basic concept of Floor Management

Before you start programming your floor plan, you must first understand the basic concept of tables positioning on your plan.

Each object use X and Y axis to be positioned on the restaurant layout. The screen is divided by 640 positions for the X's (position 0 top 639 from left to right) and 480 positions for the Y's (position 0 to 479 from top to bottom).

Use the floor editor option to drag and drop elements to design your restaurant layout.
