# Tables & floor plan

**Scenario:** your restaurant has eight counter seats and one private room;
online booking should automatically put a party of two at the counter and a
six-person dinner in the private room. Those rules all start in **Tables**.

## Areas and tables

Press **＋ Add area** first to create your zones (counter, main floor, window,
private room…), then **＋ Add table** to create tables inside each area:

- **Table name** — something the floor actually says out loud (Counter A,
  Round 1, Patio 2).
- **Shape** — round / square / rectangle; affects how it looks on the floor
  plan.
- **Min / max party size** — what auto-assignment runs on. A private room set
  to "4–6" won't be taken by a couple, and a solo diner won't land at a
  ten-person round table.

Every table has an **Active / Inactive** switch — a table out for repair or
patio seats packed away for the season stop being assigned to bookings once
inactive; the data stays, and you can switch them back anytime.

## Arranging the floor plan

Press **▦ Arrange floor plan** to open the fullscreen editor and drag tables
into your real room layout. Once arranged, the
[Floor page's Map view](/en/docs/floor) renders exactly this layout.

- **Drag** to move tables (they snap to the grid); drag a corner to resize.
- Tap a table for its tools: change shape, **⟲/⟳ rotate**, set **Seats**.
- **Auto-arrange** places all unplaced tables onto the canvas in one press;
  the **Unplaced** tray lists everything not yet on the plan.
- **Undo / Redo** at any time; nothing takes effect until **Save layout**, and
  **Cancel** discards everything.

If two devices edit at once, saving warns "layout changed on another device" —
the later save wins. The editor needs room to work: use a tablet or computer;
phones are prompted to switch to a larger screen.
