Setting up Dining Table Alerts

With the alert feature you can alert the waiter after a certain time has passed since the dining table status received its current status. When an alert goes on, the dining table button receives a thick border with striking color.

The hospitality service flow contains the settings for alerts for each status. The following table shows examples of how to set an alert for each status that makes sense to set an alert for.

Transaction Status
Bill Printed-Served

Display Alert after (Min.): 4

Alert Text: Get payment

Used to remind the waiter to go to the table to receive payment after the bill has been printed.

Note: The Bill Printed status must not change the dining table status (to free or clean), if you want to set an alert on the Bill Printed status.
The customers are waiting at the table with the bill and want to pay for their order. If the Bill Printed status changes the dining table status to Free or Clean, the customers go to cashier with the bill to pay.
You can have alert on the Bill Printed-Not Served status (does not change the dining table status) while the Bill Printed-Served status has no alert and changes the dining table status to free or clean.
