Join tables into combinations

Sell two or more tables together so larger parties can book online, and choose which booking types can use them.

2 min read

In short: go to Bookings › Combinations, click Create combination, pick at least two tables that push together, then save.

where to find it

Create the combination

  1. Go to Bookings › Combinations, then choose your venue.
  2. Click Create combination. It is Active, so bookable once saved.
  3. Under Tables in this combination, pick tables that sit beside each other, then click Done.
  4. Check the Name, Min capacity and Max capacity (filled from the tables).
  5. Pick any Amenities: Highchair, Buggy space or Wheelchair access.
  6. Click Create combination.

Limit it to some booking types

Every booking type without Custom table selection can use it. To limit it:

  1. Go to Bookings › Booking Types, then choose your venue.
  2. Click Edit on the type.
  3. Under Tables and availability, turn on Custom table selection.
  4. Click Select combinations, tick the ones it can use, then click Done.
  5. Click Save.

Check it worked

On your booking page, try a party size only the combination fits. If times show, it is live, and the Day Planner holds its tables as one booking.

If a combination goes wrong

It will not save

Read the message that pops up: Pick at least two tables to combine, Min capacity can’t exceed max or Name is required. Fix it, then click Create combination again. A combination can join three or more tables.

It does not show online

Check its switch is on in the list (off pauses it), the party size sits between Min capacity and Max capacity, and any booking type with Custom table selection has it ticked.

Bookings land on the wrong tables

Click Edit on the combination and check the tables under Tables in this combination. Give every table its own name in Tables, so you can tell them apart. To fix one booking, open it on the Day Planner and assign its tables again.

who can open combinations

Good to know

  • Archiving a combination takes it off the planner straight away. Bookings already on it keep their tables.
  • Party size missing online? See party size not showing.
  • Only Admin, Moderator, General Manager and Reports can open Combinations. Bookings Manager, FOH, Marketing and IT cannot see it.
