From Timeline, businesses can manage bookings and view availability for a single date. The Timeline consists of square tiles. Each tile indicates available, held, or booked reservations.
To go to Timeline, click the Reservations tab, then click Timeline.

- Communal tables are a way to group reservations - they can be traditional shared tables, bar seating, or a group of tickets for an event.
- Number in middle of tile: Number of available, held, or booked covers on a slot.
- Range of numbers in middle of tile: Minimum and maximum number of guests bookable.
- Abbreviation at bottom of tile: Experience short code.
- Letter S on a communal tile: Stragglers allowed.This feature allows you to customize the party sizes that are able to book the last seats of a communal slot.
- Selecting Allow stragglers means guests can book all available slots.
- Opting to not allow stragglers means the system will prevent bookings that leave only one remaining available ticket. For reservations that are in high demand, this can lead to a loss of revenue.
Pacing and occupancy
At the top of Timeline, you’ll find a summary of occupancy.
Occupancy shows you how many total covers will be present at any given time increment across all of your reservations.
