- The first entry, Booking created, shows when the booking was made.
A changed time shows as its own entry. There is no separate field for the time first booked. For changes across your organisation, see the event log.
Linked to a Square bill
- Table moves are greyed out while the booking is synced to a Square bill. Move table shows the steps for your Square Restaurant POS app, and Stampede updates once the bill moves. See a Square bill is on the wrong booking.
- Unsync breaks the table link so you can move the booking freely. Items, pricing and payments still work, and Re-enable turns sync back on.
- If a paid deposit did not go onto the bill when the party was seated, click Push to Square under Deposits.
Good to know
- On the Floorplan, move a booking with Change Table.
- Emails is greyed out when the booking has no email address.
- A pre-order opens as Edit Pre-Order while it is a draft, then as View Pre-Order.
