In the POS Tables view, a Reservations button appears in the top-right corner showing today's confirmed bookings. When a new reservation arrives, a real-time pop-up notification alerts the cashier immediately.

The Today's Reservations panel in POS displays each booking with the customer name, reservation time slot, table, guest count, and contact number. The status badge shows whether the reservation is Confirmed, Checked In, or another state.

If guests are delayed past their time, their booking status changes to Late (red badge) in the sidebar, and the table on the map updates visually. Cashiers can select the table and click the Check In button.

Upon clicking Check In, a new order is opened in the POS register interface, and the reservation customer's name is automatically set on the order.

To maintain data integrity, the order is locked to the reservation customer. Any attempt to change the customer triggers a warning: "This order is locked to reservation customer Krishna Aghara. It will not allow to change customer."

In the POS Register view, the reservation ID (RES/00017) and guest name are clearly linked and displayed under the list of ordered food and beverage items.

Upon payment completion, the printed POS receipt automatically prints the Reservation reference and guest name, helping keep track of completed bookings.

After check-in, the reservation status in the panel becomes Checked In (green badge). The green Checkout button is highlighted in the sidebar, which the staff can click when the guest decides to pay and leave.

Once checked out, the POS cashier receives a green Checked out. pop-up confirmation, the table is released to green (available) on the map, and the sidebar is updated to show no active reservations.

A post-visit feedback request email is automatically generated and sent to the customer's email address, containing a Write a review link.

The link directs customers to the website review page where they can rate their visit (1 to 5 stars) and write comments.

Upon submitting their feedback, customers see a Thank you for your feedback confirmation page linked to their reservation ID (RES/00017).

The review rating, submission date, and comments are synced to the backend under the Reservation Review tab on the POS order, and are also logged in the chatter feed.

To enable advance payment, activate Make Advance Booking Mandatory in Website Settings. Set the Advance Booking Product (used to generate the online invoice) and the Advance Booking Amount per table.

With advance payment enabled, customers can see the Advance Booking amount per table prominently displayed on the Book a Table page while selecting a table, so they know upfront what deposit is required.

On the Review before payment page, the system displays the complete reservation details and guest form. The Advance Booking amount ($100.00) is clearly shown. Customers must click the Pay Advance Booking button to proceed.

Customers are redirected to the portal to view the generated Proforma Invoice for their deposit and click the Pay Now button to complete the secure online payment.

In the POS interface, cashiers instantly receive a New reservation received. pop-up notification upon successful completion of the booking and payment on the website.

Under the Today's Reservations sidebar in POS, the confirmed booking lists the paid deposit details with a Deposit: 100 badge, indicating that the mandatory advance payment has been successfully recorded.

At checkout in POS, the pre-paid deposit is automatically added to the register order as a negative line item (Reservation Advance Deposit) of -$100.00, so the customer only pays the remaining balance.

The booking form validates selected table capacity against the guest count in real time. If the guest count exceeds the capacity of the selected table, the guest input field is outlined in red and the table's name is underlined in red.

The form prevents booking submissions when no table has been selected. Clicking the Book button without a table selection highlights the button with a red boundary to prompt the user.

A clear warning banner is displayed underneath the table availability check when the selected tables do not provide enough seats for the specified number of guests.

Configure the Advance Booking Lead Time in the backend settings to define the minimum time period required before customers can book a table on the website.

If a customer attempts to select a reservation slot that violates the configured Advance Booking Lead Time, the system displays a validation error message: "Please select a valid table, date and time."

Configure the Reservation Hold Timeout in the backend settings. This automatically releases draft/pending table reservations if they are not completed within the specified duration.

If a user changes the date, time, or guest input fields on the booking form after having checked availability, the system prompts them to check table availability again before proceeding.
