    Move Tab to Another Table

    2 min read#14

    Move the existing tab when guests change tables. You can also merge it with a tab on the destination table. Change its name and comment separately under Kommentar (comment).

    Move to another table:

    1. Open the tab to move.
    2. Select Flytta (move) in the quick buttons.
    3. Select a section and destination table in Flytta nota (move tab). Switch between available table views if needed.
    4. Check that the correct table is selected.
    5. If items have already been sent, Skicka flyttbong (send transfer ticket) appears. Leave this on when the kitchen needs the new location.
    6. Select Flytta hit (move here) and check the confirmation.

    If the destination table already has a tab:

    Choose how to handle the move:

    • Flytta hit som egen nota (move here as a separate tab) keeps both tabs separate on the same table.
    • Merging with an existing tab transfers the items to that selected tab. The source tab no longer remains a separate tab.

    Check names and amounts before merging. If the dialog does not allow the intended action, read the message and finish any ongoing payment first.

    Rename a tab:

    1. Select Kommentar to open Notainställningar (tab settings).
    2. Enter a clear name in Namn på nota (tab name), such as “Eriksson party”.
    3. Update any comment and select Spara (save).

    Renaming does not move the guests to another table. Use Flytta when their table assignment must change too.

    Inform the kitchen:

    A transfer ticket informs the kitchen of the old and new table. It is not a new order for the same food. Check that Skicka flyttbong is enabled when you use printed tickets and the kitchen has already received the order. KDS shows the updated table information.

    Things to check:

    • Check upcoming reservations before moving guests to a table.
    • Do not move a paid tab as a new unpaid order. Handle corrections through order history.
    • When two staff members serve the same party, coordinate the move so you continue on the same tab.
    • Use Visa historik (view history) on the tab in Tidigare notor (previous tabs) to follow changes.

    Example: Guests start at the bar and then receive a table. Open their existing tab, select that table and send a transfer ticket if the kitchen already has an order. Continue adding new items to the same tab.
