Before you begin
A board-game shop, branch and physical seating plan.
Where to go
Board-game tables → Settings
Visible menus may vary with language, permissions, app version and shop configuration.Follow these steps
- Select a branch, create an area such as Floor 1, then add tables with unique codes, names and seat capacities. Verify the correct branch.
- A table is physical furniture; a seating is current occupancy; a session is one party's visit; a billing group is the people paying together. Non-billable spectators/guardians still count toward seating capacity.
- Training example: four guests arrive together at T01 but want two bills. Open one session with participants assigned to billing groups 1 and 2.
- Before taking a table/area out of service, check reservations and occupants and resolve them first. If no dedicated maintenance control exists, have the manager keep the table unavailable operationally.
How to verify success
Tables appear in the correct area/branch and staff understand that merging tables does not merge bills.
Limits & things to check
A table is not free while a party or unpaid bill remains. Seat capacity is not live vacancy.
