Areas along with Tables should only be completed if the restaurant wants to manage its availability through tables rather than total capacity (number of customers).
Table(s) must be inserted in order to enable the Table Management function within a restaurant.
The tables inserted in this section will appear only on the dashboard Book Now (ie. back-office booking process), allowing the user to choose the table in which the customer will be seated.
The customer will not be able to choose a table during the booking process through the widget, as the table is allocated automatically based on the data entered in the Reservation Order field.
