Table Management

Table management software for smoother dine-in service.

Tab2Kit helps cafes and restaurants manage table orders, dine-in service flow, order status and kitchen connection from one system. Staff can connect table activity with POS, QR ordering, kitchen display, bill handling and reports.

Instead of managing dine-in service through memory, paper notes or disconnected dockets, Tab2Kit helps keep table activity clearer from order to payment.

What it does

What Table Management does

Tab2Kit helps staff manage the dine-in side of the business.

Table management supports table-based ordering, order status visibility and service flow. Staff can understand which tables are active, which orders have been sent to the kitchen and which bills may still need attention.

Kitchen display connection

Bill handling support

Reporting connection

This helps front-of-house and kitchen teams work from clearer information during service.

Dine-in table orders

Manage dine-in orders by table.

Dine-in service needs more than simple order entry. Staff need to know which table ordered, what has been sent to the kitchen, what is still open and what needs to be paid.

Tab2Kit helps connect orders to tables so staff can manage dine-in activity more clearly.

Creating an order for a table

Adding items to an existing table order

Sending items to the kitchen

Checking order status

Managing active table activity

Preparing for bill handling and payment

Reviewing table-related order history

This gives staff a clearer way to manage dine-in service without relying only on memory or paper notes.

Table status and service flow

Keep table status easier to understand.

During busy service, staff need to know what is happening across the floor. Without clear table status, orders can be missed, bills can be delayed and customer service can become inconsistent.

Tab2Kit can support clearer table and service visibility.

Clearer table status helps staff coordinate service and reduce confusion during peak trading periods.

Connected to POS and order management

Connect table service with POS and order management.

Table management should not be separate from the checkout and order workflow. Tab2Kit connects table activity with POS and order management so staff can manage dine-in service from the same operating system.

This helps staff avoid switching between disconnected systems during service.

Connected to QR and table ordering

Support QR and table ordering.

Some venues want customers to order from the table using a QR code. Others prefer staff-entered table orders. Some may use both depending on service style.

Tab2Kit supports table ordering as part of the broader ordering workflow.

The goal is to make table ordering flexible without creating separate order silos.

Connected to kitchen display

Send table orders to the kitchen.

Dine-in service depends on clear kitchen communication. When staff take a table order, the kitchen needs to receive preparation details quickly and accurately.

Tab2Kit can connect table orders to the kitchen display system or bump screen.

This keeps table service connected to kitchen preparation.

Bill handling and payment workflow

Support bill handling for dine-in service.

Table service often needs practical bill handling. Customers may want to pay together, split a bill or pay after additional items have been added to the table.

Tab2Kit supports bill handling as part of the connected order workflow.

This helps keep table service, bill handling and payment records aligned.

Reports and service visibility

Use table activity in operational reports.

Table management data can help owners understand dine-in service activity and performance.

When table orders connect with the wider Tab2Kit system, this data can support reporting and management review.

This helps owners understand how dine-in service contributes to the business.
