Though every restaurant varies in layout and design, well-thought-out floor plans ensure efficient use of space, easy access for servers to equipment, and adequate traffic flow for servers and guests alike. Salido makes it easy for you to achieve these goals using the Floor Plan tool in the Bridge.
Each revenue center will have its own floor plan, and though Salido allows the creation of multiple floor plans, only a single floor plan can be active per revenue center at a time. Each Floor Plan contains all the tables and barriers for the revenue center and provides a visual representation for staff members within their POS terminals.
Note: Tables must be created and configured for a floor plan to be created. For instructions on configuring tables, click here.
To Create a New Floor Plan:
1. Navigate to Settings > Restaurant Operations in the Bridge and select Floor Plans
2. Choose the Location and the Revenue Center
Note: If a Revenue Center has yet to be created for the Location, click on Edit Revenue Centers and follow the instructions for How to Create Revenue Centers before proceeding.
3. Click + New Floor Plan to bring up the New Floor Plan tool. Or, to edit an existing Floor Plan, follow the instructions in the article on How to Clone and Edit a Floor Plan
4. To add a table to the New Floor Plan, click the desired table in the Not Yet Added table list on the left and reposition it by dragging and dropping it on the canvas
- As tables are added, they will appear in the Floor Plan Tables list.
- Newly added tables automatically position to the right of the last interacted table or barrier.
- If tables are reordered, new tables align next to the last selected/moved table or barrier.
- Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out of the canvas.
- Tables cannot overlap each other.
- Each table instance is unique; duplicates cannot be added.
- While there's no technical limit to how many tables can be added, practical usability may vary.
5. To make the table the appropriate size, click any of the corners of its selection box and drag it to the desired dimensions
6. Continue adding tables as necessary until all the desired tables are placed and positioned on the New Floor Plan
During the floor plan creation, any previously placed table can be deleted by hovering over the table in the Floor Plan Tables list and clicking it.
7. To add a barrier like a wall, divider, or other structure or section in your restaurant, click on + Add Barrier, and it will automatically position to the right of the last interacted table or barrier
8. To adjust the barrier's position and size, click and drag its corners to your preferred location
9. Using the menu on the left, click the pencil icon, fill in the barrier's Name, e.g., "Main Bar," and click the check button to save
10. Repeat Steps 7 through 9 until all barriers are added
11. Barriers can be deleted in this section as well by clicking the trashcan icon
12. Once the Floor Plan is complete, select whether or not you want to make this the active plan for this Revenue Center by sliding the Make Active Floor Plan selector to the right
13. Name the Floor Plan
14. Click Save in the bottom right-hand corner to keep your changes
