For this, you have to install an extra module known as “Restaurant” (Technical name: pos_restaurant)
from Odoo apps.

5. Now let us see the changes happened to your POS front end view.
Resume or start the new session by clicking the button “New Session” in the dashboard.
6. Instead of the normal POS window, you will get a new window like below.
This is the restaurant seating arrangement Main Floor. T1, T2, T3,...T11 are the tables on this floor.
7. In each table you can see the number of seats there.

Floor’ and ‘Patio’

tables in each floor and number of seats in each table.
To manage the tables and arrangements directly from the front end by click on the “Pen” button in

14. You can use the next button to change the shape of the table.Basically, two shapes are available in
this case, circle and square.
15. Next one is Color picker button. You can change the color of the background and tables.

selected, then it will change the background color.
