Step-by-step guide
The "Start From Table View " feature in SalesPlay POS allows users to set a predefined table layout as the main interface for the POS system. This layout will be the default view before starting sales, enabling users / cashiers to select a table and begin billing directly from the table layout screen.
Once a receipt is completed or an open bill is saved, the system will return to the table layout view. This feature is particularly beneficial for businesses like restaurants, bars, and pubs where operations heavily depend on table management.
Example
Imagine a busy restaurant where waitstaff need to quickly assign orders to specific tables. By using the "Default Table View" feature, the restaurant can streamline the ordering process. When a customer is seated, the cashier can easily select the corresponding table from the main interface, take the order, and upon completing the bill, immediately return to the table layout to assist the next customer. This ensures a smooth and efficient workflow, reducing wait times and improving customer service.
