Name	What it does	When you use it	Note
Name	The name of the restriction, at most 50 characters. The name is only visible internally.	Choose a name that says why, such as Private party or Staff lunch.	-
Maximum number of characters	The counter below the name: how many characters still fit.	While typing.	-
Location	With a Location restriction you choose the location(s) that close. On the chosen days the tables of those locations are no longer offered for a reservation.	If, for example, the terrace or the conservatory is closed for a day.	Only for the Location restriction.
Reservation types	The reservation types for which the restriction applies. For Crowd reduction and Time limitation you choose them with tiles (more than one is allowed). The list says All Booking Types if you have chosen all types.	Always for Crowd reduction and Time limitation.	A Location restriction applies to all reservation types; the choice is hidden there.
All Booking Types	In the overview of the Crowd reduction and the Time limitation this appears in the column Reservation types if the restriction applies to all types.	To check in the list.	-
Limiting reservations	Determines what the Crowd reduction counts: Number of reservations or Number of guests. Default Number of guests.	Choose Number of guests if the kitchen has to watch covers, Number of reservations if it is about tables.	Afterwards you fill in the maximum per arrival time.
Number of reservations	A choice under Limiting reservations: Jimani counts the number of reservations that start at that arrival time.	With limited table capacity.	-
Number of guests	A choice under Limiting reservations: Jimani counts the total number of guests that start at that arrival time, across all guest groups.	With limited kitchen capacity.	-
Day restriction	With Yes the Time limitation applies to the whole day on the chosen dates. With No you choose a time from and a time to.	For a day off or a private party.	Time from and Time to disappear if you choose Yes.
Time from	The start time of the block. The time itself and everything after it up to Time to is blocked.	With Day restriction on No.	Both times equal (except 00:00 and 00:00) is not accepted. If the time runs past midnight, the screen shows +1 day.
Time to	The end time of the block. The time itself is still blocked.	With Day restriction on No.	-
Date	The calendar with which you choose on which days the restriction applies: single days, weeks or months by clicking. With the arrows you go to other years. In the list it says More than one date has been selected if more than one day has been chosen. On the screen it says: "Select all"	For Location restriction and Time limitation.	The Crowd reduction has no dates: the limit applies every day.
Active	Whether the restriction counts. You turn it on or off with the switch in the column Active of the overview.	Turn off to keep a restriction for later.	In the window itself Active is hidden.
Manage the time blocks	The subtitle in the header of the Time limitation window when you open an existing block.	To recognise the window.	-
Per time slot	Only for the Crowd reduction: a table with Time and Maximum quantity of guests (or reservations) per arrival time. In the column header you fill in a value, which then applies to all times; then you adjust individual times. The table shows every quarter of an hour; only the times that are also in the widget count.	After choosing the reservation types.	0 means no limit at that time.
