Booking
There are several ways to create a new booking:
First option:
- You can click on the “+” symbol (booking) or the ” little walking man” (walk-in). The booking (+ icon) opens a new window where you can enter the date, the number of people, the time, the table and the guest data.
- You can switch between the individual tabs at the top and go back if you need to change something. When everything is entered, you can click on the checkmark at the top right to save it.
- When selecting the “little walking man” (walk-in) a bar opens which can be used to enter the guest name and the number of people. At the right hand side you can select a suitable table on the table plan. To save the entry for the walk-in you have to select “create”at the top left.
Second option:
- Select a table directly on your table plan and then click on the “+” symbol or the “little walking man”. In this case the table is already set and you only have to enter the number of guests and the guest data. Apart from that everythings works exactly the same way as explained in the first option.
Click on the hourglass icon on the right side at the top of the edit bar. Then you can enter the guest data. The waitlist entry appears on the left side above the bookings as a waiting party.
If you do have space in your restaurant, click on the group which is currently still on your waitlist and you now want to place. Then you can select “Seat” and convert the waitlist entry into a booking. To assign a table, select the suitable table on your table plan by tapping on it. Remember to adjust the time to when the booking actually takes place and then save it.
If you do not have any more seats available you can delete the waitlist entry and your guests will automatically receive a cancellation notification via email.
- When you have logged into the iPad app, you are immediately in the booking overview with the table plan. On the left side you can see the overview with all bookings.
- Select the booking you want to edit. Afterwards a window with the booking details opens. There you can edit all the details and save them in the upper right corner.
- If you want to add a reservation tag, all your tags will appear above the keyboard and you can choose the appropriate one.
- To change the status of a booking click on the arrow next to the current status. Then the menu will open and you can select a new status.
In the browser version of resmio you can define specific time periods for the categories breakfast, lunch, dinner under “Settings” > “Bookings” > “Booking times & capacities”.
In the iPad app, you can then filter the bookings by these categories. To do this, click on the clock symbol in the center of the editing bar. Then only certain time periods will be displayed.
You can choose under the Burger menu (the three horizontal lines) > “Settings” >“Behavior” > “Date to automatically select a booking was created” whether the date will jump back to today or stay with the date of the created booking.
Select “Date of created booking” to stay at the date in the future.
Depending on which time is selected/shown at the top of the edit bar, different bookings will be displayed, as only a certain number of bookings are shown.
In the settings you can define how many future bookings are displayed at once. To do this, go to the Burger menu (the three horizontal lines) > “Settings” > “Appearance”. In the “Table Layout” you can decide whether only one or up to three bookings are displayed in advance.

- With the “Grid” you can increase the lines you can use to align the tables.
- If the “Snap to grid” slider is active (blue), the tables can only be placed on one of the crossed grid lines. If the slider is off, the tables can be placed freely in the room.
Add a new element:
To place a new object on the plan, click on a grid cross. Then you can choose whether you want to create a new table, plant, text box or wall.
- Table: When you create a table, you can specify the name and the capacity (number of seats), as well as the table shape, size and orientation. If you want to edit an already created table, just click on the corresponding table, then the just described menu will open.
- Plant: You can select one of three plants by clicking on it.
- Text box: First set the text and then the size of the box. You can also set the text color, fill color and orientation.
- Wall: You can set the color and width before you click “create”. After you have created the wall, you can set the length by tapping the end of the wall with your finger and dragging it longer or shorter. You can also adjust the orientation of the wall by dragging the end of the wall in the desired direction.
Move objects:
To move something on the table plan, click on the object with your finger and move it to the desired position while holding it.
Please note: If “Snap to grid” is active in the edit bar, you can only move objects to the intersections of the grid.
