Layouts
Multiple layouts can be used within a restaurant (e.g., bar layout, patio layout, dining room layout, banquet room layout, etc.). Multiple layouts are particularly useful for larger restaurants where a single layout displaying all locations on the device might become too crowded to be useful.
With this feature, the user can:
- Add one or more layouts
- Give each layout a unique name
- Add a background image to a layout
- Display a list of available layouts
- Move tables to and from layouts
- Return to last layout used after completing a transaction
To manage layouts, Manage, then tap Location Map.
