How Guests Enter the System
Categories and articles
A guest profile can be created or enriched when a booking or order has contact details that identify the guest. An anonymous purchase does not automatically become a named guest profile.
Common routes into the guest registry:
- Booking: contact details from an online booking or one entered by staff are used to find or create a profile.
- Walk-in: linking is possible when staff record contact details. A walk-in without them does not automatically identify the guest.
- Online ordering: details supplied in the ordering flow can link the guest to their order.
- POS: use Koppla gäst (Link guest) on the tab and select an existing guest or create a new one.
- Manual entry: choose Ny gäst (New guest) under Admin → Marknadsföring → Gäster → Register.
SMS receipt delivery is separate. Entering a receipt phone number does not by itself create or link a guest profile. Nor is it agreement to future marketing.
What can the profile show?
When details exist and activities are linked to the correct guest, the profile can contain:
- Name, phone and email
- Visit count, total spending and average bill
- First and most recent visit
- Favourite dishes from order history
- Bookings, no-shows and party size
- Tags, notes and recorded messaging choices
Avoid duplicate profiles: Search before creating a guest. Check the name and contact details attached to the tab or booking. A matching phone number can help Vendion find an existing profile, but staff still need to check whose details they are.
