you want by entering it in the Capacity eld on the Table Manager Designer window (the Capacity eld can be
set from 0 to 99).
For more instructions on adding tables, refer to the POS Terminal in-product Help or simply press F1 on the Design
Table Manager Layout window.
Numbering tables
POS automatically labels tables with sequentital numbers, e.g., as a new table is added the Table # eld increases by
1. However, you can overwrite this number label using up to 8 alphanumeric characters. If you try to label (number)
a table with a label (number) that is already in use you receive an error stating this and telling you to enter a new
label (number).
If you have deleted a table from your area layout and are adding a new table it is automatically numbered with the
lowest unique number available, e.g., you have 10 tables on your area layout, numbered 1 to 10 and you delete
Table # 4. The next table you add is automatically numbered 4. If you are using your own labels (numbers) for the
tables you can change the labels of new tables to match your system.
If you are setting up multiple areas they must all have their own unique table labels (numbers). Therefore, in the
case of POS automatically numbering tables sequentially - Area 1 has tables numbered 1, 2, 3, and 5. Area 2’s table
numbers start at 4 then the next table number will be 6. POS always looks for the rst lowest unique number
available and labels the new table accordingly.
Deleting tables
Tables can be deleted from an area layout one by one or all at once.
You can’t delete a table if it has an open transaction or reservation. You must complete all
transactions for a table before you can delete the table.
