Settings
What is it for?
The General settings set the restaurant module's name, whether it is on or off, and where staff can use the app from.
How do I open this screen? In the left menu go to Restaurant → Settings, then the General sub-tab. Or Restaurant Management → Settings → General.
When do I use it?
- To change the business name.
- To turn the restaurant module off for a while.
- To let staff use the app only on the venue's Wi-Fi.
Step by step
- Change the field you need (for example type
Sea Cafe Kadikoyin Business name, or flip a switch) and click Save. The top says "Saved."

Frequently asked questions
I turned the module off. Is my data deleted?
No. Requests, points, tasks and settings stay; they come back as they were when you turn the switch on again.
Staff cannot use the app when they are outside.
Staff app only from the business network is on. Staff must be on the venue's Wi-Fi, or you turn the switch off. Managers are exempt.
Where do I find the guest request page address for the restaurant?
The panel no longer shows a separate guest request page for restaurants; the guest surface is the QR menu. Details: Setting up the QR menu from start to finish.
