Possible to disable concatenating tabels?

gnulf

Hi,

is it possible to configure TI so that the table-auto-allocate-function dosnt concatenate tables if the count of the guests in on reservation is bigger than the capacity of the remaining free tables?

For example:
In the restaurant are the following tables with max capacity:

table 1 (2 people)
table 2 (2 people)
table 3 (3 people)
table 3 (3 people)
table 4 (3 people)
table 5 (3 people)
table 6 (6 people)

If a group of 6 guest make a reservation, the system will reserve the “table 6”. OK.
When an other group of 5,6, or 7 people want to reserve a table at the same time like the first group, the system now creates a group of tables an reserves “table 4” and “table 5” for this second group. But here is a stop necessary!

The system havnt to group tables to get the needed capacity but should raise an “error” like “sorry, at this time we have no place for your big group. Please choose an other time or call our service team” … or what ever …

I ve discovered the option to limit the concurrent user at one time slot. But I think this has not the same effect.

Has some one an idea or a hint how to solve?

gnulf Have you tried disabling the Is Joinable option under Restaurant > Tables?

Yes, the “Is Joinable” option is switched off for all tables.

BTW: means this option:
a) If a new guest wants to order a table but there is no table available, than the software can assign one of the free seats to this new guest at another table that still has free seats.
or
b) The table can be pushed together with other tables to form a large table for a large group.
