# Table Color

### Table Color <a href="#table_color" id="table_color"></a>

The Table Color option from the Workstation menu allows to program colors for tables displayed on the Open Table Verification screen at the workstation. Each table color represents a different time period that you set up with this option. If a table has remained open for the set time period, the table displays in a certain color. The colors are mainly for reference purposes so employees are able to determine if tables are still open.

**Table**

**From**

Type the amount of time after which you want the open table to display in the color for the next period, such as 0015 for 15 minutes.

**Color**

Select the color in which you want to display the open table during a specified time period.

**Printed Check**

Select the screen color for a printed check when a reading is shown at the workstation.

**Released Check**

Select the color for a released check.

**Pre-Authorized Check**

Select the color for a pre-authorized check if Electronic Funds Transfer is installed on your system.

**Table With Printed Check**

Select the color in which you want the open table to display if the check for this table has already been printed.
