Drag-and-Drop Table Reassign
Thirty-second table swap, zero side-effects.
A party of four walks in and needs a bigger table. Another table finishes early, or a group spills into the garden. The hostess has thirty seconds to move the reservation — and if moving it means updating the waiter, the POS, and the printed slip separately, that thirty seconds becomes three minutes of chaos.
Drag-and-Drop Table Reassign collapses that into one gesture. Grab the reservation card on the floor plan, drop it on another table, done. The table change propagates instantly: the waiter assigned to the new section takes over, Ordering.Tools picks up the new table number, and the timeline records the swap with a reason note.
If the destination table is already booked, the system flags the conflict before the move commits — no silent overbooking. If the new section has a different waiter on shift, the reservation re-routes automatically. No double-entry, no "which table are they actually on?" moments.
Key benefits
One drag = full sync
The reservation, the waiter, the POS, the timeline — all pick up the new table instantly.
Conflict detection
Destination already booked? The system warns before the swap, never silently overbooks.
Waiter re-routes
New section, new waiter on shift — the reservation owner switches with the table.
Audit trail included
Every swap is logged with who moved, why, and when — visible in the reservation history.
Works during service
No freeze, no modal, no save button. Moves apply live while the floor is active.
