1. Customize the list from the web application
Go to Settings > Services and Reservations > Reservation List > Customization
Add or remove reservation details from your list.
- The default fields shown are: client – time – pax – status – icons (default sources) – table.
- Drag and drop elements into the "Elements you want to display" section.
- Don’t forget to save your changes at the bottom of the page.
Display certain elements as text or icons
This helps optimize space and readability.
To choose between text or icon display for some fields, simply drag the item into the "Icon columns" section,
or click the small dot directly in the item’s box to switch its display format.
Change the order of displayed elements and icons
Two dedicated sections allow you to organize:
-
The order of the columns
-
The order of the icons in the dedicated icon column
Simply drag and drop each item to rearrange them as needed.
Group reservations by time slots (or not)
You can group reservations by 15-minute time slots or display them in a continuous list.
To enable grouping, check the box "Display and group by time slots in the reservation list".
Late reservations on the floor plan
You can activate a visual indicator in your reservation list to alert you when a reservation is over 15 or 30 minutes late.
This helps you follow up with the guest and potentially seat new clients.
Check the box "Animate a late reservation", then save your selection at the bottom of the page.
Show a summary table of reservations by party size
This summary displays the number of confirmed reservations by number of guests.
The top row shows the party size, and the bottom row shows the number of tables.
The table appears daily at the bottom of your reservation list.
Check the box "Display the summary table of reservations by party size".
Show “Cancelled” reservations in the “ALL” filter
This option allows cancelled reservations to appear in the “ALL” filter alongside active bookings.
If unchecked, they will only appear under the “OTHER” filter.
Check the box "Display reservations with 'Cancelled' status in the 'ALL' filter".
