It is possible with ResDiary to close-out your entire restaurant for individual time-slots or an individual table for the length of the average time rule set for its cover size. You can close-out as many individual time-slots and tables as required
Once a close-out is in place no new bookings can begin during that time period. Bookings which begin before the close-out can still overlap with the closed time. Please click here for more information on how this works.
To close-out individual tables or time-slots:
1) Click on the 
button in the top right hand corner of the main diary screen

3) Click the 
button to enter edit mode. While in this mode you will see a red box at the top of the screen with an X to return to the regular diary
