The dining area plan for the dining area specifies:
- when the dining area is open.
- the time periods during the day.
- which sections are open for each period.
- the allowed reservation capacity for each period.
- what dining area layout is in use for each period.
Note:You need to use dining area plan for dining table allocation. Otherwise, it is optional to use dining area plans. If you want to change layouts automatically, you use dining area plans to schedule when they should change.
The program automatically creates a dining area plan for each day using the dining area plan templates.
For each day, you can change the closing status of the dining area, periods, and sections, change which layout in use, and change the allowed reservation capacity and percentage.
