Area and Units Overview
Areas and units map your physical layout into Fuze Store. You manage them under Configurations, then use them on the POS Units screen to assign orders and track status.
What this covers
An area is a section or zone in your store, such as Al fresco, VIP lounge, 2nd floor, or washing bay. You group related units under it.
A unit is a specific spot where service happens: a table, room, seat, bay, or booth. A unit can optionally belong to an area. Orders, bookings, and the waiting list can point at a unit.
How it flows:
- Create areas under Configurations → Operations → Areas (New Area).
- Create units under Configurations → Operations → Units (New Unit) with a name, a capacity, an optional area, and the enable switch.
- On POS, open the drawer and tap Units to see the grid. With the Floor Plan add-on you may see a live floor instead.
- Tap a unit to Make Order, change its status, View Order, or Transfer an open order to another unit.
