Managing a Specific Table

Detailed guide to managing orders and information for a table in the Menoo Waiter app

This section describes in detail how to manage orders and information for a specific table in the Menoo Waiter app.

Access this page by selecting a table from the list on the main "Tables" page.

Table header

The header contains essential information about the table status and provides quick access to administrative actions:

  • Back button – Return to the full table list.
  • Total Orders – The total value of orders for that table. Example: Total 201.00 RON
  • Total Accepted – The amount already accepted and sent to the kitchen/bar. Example: 120.00 RON
  • Paid – The amount already collected from the customer. Example: 100.00 RON
  • Remaining – The outstanding amount to collect. Example: 101.00 RON
  • Close Table – Button used to mark the table as closed.

Table orders

All orders associated with the table are displayed as cards, each representing a distinct order.

Information displayed for each order:

  • Order Number – e.g., #123
  • Status – e.g., New, Accepted, Cancelled
  • Customer – Customer identifier (e.g., Anonymous#2469)
  • Date and Time – When the order was placed
  • Ordered Items – Detailed list of items
  • Order Total – Total value of that order

Available actions for each order

For each order, the following options are available:

  • Accept – Confirms the order and sends it to the kitchen/bar.
  • Edit – Allows modifying the order (e.g., adjusting quantity, adding notes).
  • Cancel – Cancels the order in case of error or customer withdrawal.
  • View customer – Access additional customer information.

Workflow recommendations

  • Accept orders as soon as they appear to maintain a fast flow with the kitchen/bar.
  • Check the total amount and payment status before closing the table.
  • Do not close the table until the customer has paid in full.
  • Use the "Edit" function to manage quick changes to orders without cancelling entirely.
Note: Unaccepted orders will not be processed by the kitchen/bar. It is the waiter's responsibility to check new orders and accept them manually.

When to use "Close Table"?

Use this function only after:

  • All orders have been processed and delivered.
  • Payment has been fully confirmed.
  • The remaining balance is zero.

After pressing the Close Table button, the table will be reset and removed from the active list.
