    Overview – How Vendion's Booking System Works

    3 min read#1

    Vendion's booking system handles three complementary booking types in the same system – table bookings, events and bookable resources. Everything appears in the same calendar, shares the same SMS flow and is automatically linked to your CRM and POS.

    Three booking types:

    TypeUse caseExamples
    Table bookingDaily restaurant service"Table for 4 at 7pm on Friday"
    EventOne-time or recurring occasionsWine tasting, holiday dinner, live music
    ResourceBookable spaces and equipmentPrivate room, bowling lane, karaoke, billiards

    All three types share the same calendar and workflow – the only difference is what the guest books (a table, an event spot or a resource slot). Staff work the same way regardless of booking type.

    Core features (all types):

    • Guests book via your booking page, event page or resource page (link or QR code)
    • You manage bookings in a shared calendar (timeline, list or floor plan)
    • Automatic table assignment based on party size (table bookings)
    • SMS confirmation and reminder sent automatically for all three types
    • Guests can modify or cancel via a manage link
    • All guest data is automatically linked to your CRM

    Table booking only:

    • Waitlist when fully booked (events and resources have no waitlist)
    • Shifts and seating duration rules
    • Automatic table assignment and table combination

    Events only:

    • One-time or recurring events
    • Price per person and max guests per booking
    • Table requirement can be linked to the event

    Resources only:

    • Recurring weekly availability per weekday
    • Blocked dates for maintenance or private events
    • Price per slot and slot duration (30/60/90/120 min)
    • Guaranteed protection against double bookings

    Booking statuses (shared across all types):

    StatusMeaning
    PendingAwaiting confirmation
    ConfirmedBooking approved
    WaitlistTable only – guest is in queue
    SeatedGuest has arrived and is seated
    CompletedVisit is finished
    No-showGuest never arrived
    CancelledBooking is cancelled

    Booking sources: Each booking tracks its origin – manually in admin, online via the booking page, by phone, walk-in, Google, event page, resource page or via AI Boss.

    Licensing: Events and resources are included in the Booking module (from SEK 490/month) or Vendion 360 (from SEK 2,490/month). Table booking is the base feature of the Booking module.

    This feature is part of Vendion Booking.
