Update Overview

This update includes significant improvements to help you better manage client data and bookings.

The most noticeable changes are in the Menu and Bookings tabs, offering improved navigation for table bookings. In particular, we have aligned the behavior of walk-in tables and bookings and enhanced the management of package and item selection.

Menu Tab

We've removed the Featured Items section above the booking tile and replaced it with four key tiles to help you manage bookings more efficiently:

  • Guest – Displays important information about the guest who booked the table and provides access to guest details, history, and metrics.

  • Package – Displays information about the package and navigates to booking conditions such as included items and payments.

  • Tab – Shows the current cumulative spend and any outstanding amounts. This tile navigates to the Tab section.

  • Guest List – Displays how many entries are permitted for the booking and how many guests have arrived. This tile navigates to the Guest List and Notes section.

Bookings Tab

We've redesigned the Bookings tab for greater flexibility and ease of use. Walk-ins and pre-scheduled bookings now appear here.

Don't have a name for your Walk-in? Use the "Group Name" in Package > Guests and this will show on the tables page.

More Improvements & Fixes
