How to move a booking to another table, or join two tables

Moving a booking to another table

Open the booking and look for the Table box. Pick a free table from the list and press Move. Tables that are already taken at that time are greyed out, so you cannot double book by accident. The move is noted in the booking history.

Joining two tables for a bigger party

Under Join with a second table, pick the table that sits next to theirs and press Join tables. Both tables are held for that party for the whole booking. If the party shrinks, press Split tables and the second table is free again.

On the floor plan

On the floor plan, tap the booked table. Choose Move to to pick another table, or Join with to add a second one. The floor plan is on the Standard plan and above, but the Table box on the booking page is there on every plan.
