This article outlines manual management of tables in the Ready Dashboard, which currently only applies to locations using Square POS.  If your location is not using Square POS, please refer to Syncing Tables from Point of Sale for details on table management via POS syncing.

Introduction

For locations using a POS that does not currently support syncing of tables from the POS, the Location Settings page allows you to manually manage the tables for the location.

When your location does not support automatic table syncing from the POS, the Sync button that usually shows in the Table Mapping screen is replaced with an + New Table button.
