Online table reservation settings help businesses manage how customers book tables through online platforms. These settings allow you to control reservation availability, booking durations, advance booking limits, and customer table selection preferences, ensuring a smooth and organized dining experience.
Setting up and managing online table reservations settings:
In order to set up and manage online table reservation settings through the Grafterr Admin Panel, follow the steps below:
Start by logging in to your Grafterr Admin Panel through the Grafterr website using your credentials. Once logged in, navigate to the left-hand menu, scroll down to the “Table Management” section, and click on “Reservation settings.” Within this section, select “Table reservation settings.”
Once you open the settings page, the first option you will see is the “Activate Online Table Booking” toggle. Enabling this toggle allows customers to make online table reservations. If disabled, online reservations will not be available for customers.
Next, configure the maximum guest count per booking slot. This setting defines the highest number of guests allowed in a single reservation and helps manage seating capacity efficiently.
You will then find the default reservation duration setting. This determines how long a table remains reserved for each booking. You can adjust the duration based on your business operations and average dining time.
Another important setting is maximum days for advance booking. This controls how far in advance customers can reserve a table online. For example, if set to 7 days, customers will only be able to book tables up to 7 days ahead, including the current day.
Next, enter the email address for reservation confirmations. Reservation details and notifications for online bookings will be sent to this email address, making it easier for your team to track upcoming reservations.
Lastly, you can decide whether customers should be allowed to choose their preferred serving area while booking online. If enabled, customers can select areas such as Indoor, Outdoor, Garden, or Lounge during the reservation process. If disabled, your staff can manually assign tables and serving areas based on availability and operational requirements.
Once all the required configurations are completed, click on “Save” to apply the settings.
