# Dine-in: Tables

> Give each storekit table the Comtrex table number so order-at-table orders open on the right check and pay-at-table finds the right bill.

For dine-in, storekit needs to know which Comtrex table each storekit table is. You enter the till's table number in the table's **POS ID**; storekit then sends it as the check's `TableNumber` on every order placed at that table, and uses it to find the table's open check for pay at table.

<Info>
  Comtrex does not send its floor plan to storekit. There is no table import or **Sync Floorplan** for Comtrex — you create areas and tables in storekit and enter each table's POS ID yourself.
</Info>

## Prerequisites

* [Comtrex connected](/docs/guides/integrations/pos/comtrex/connect) and **Integration Status** on
* Your store set up for order and pay at table — see [Dine-in Setup](/docs/getting-started/store-types/dine-in-order-and-pay)
* The list of table numbers as they're configured on the till (ask Zonal or check a till)

## Add Tables with POS IDs

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the table plan">
    Go to **Stores** → your store → **Settings** → **Tables**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add an area">
    Click **+ Add area** and give it a **Name** — for example *Restaurant* or *Terrace*. Areas are only for grouping in storekit; Comtrex doesn't see them.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Add a table">
    Under the area click the *+ Add …* button (it reads **+ Add table**, **+ Add seat** and so on, following the table descriptor set on the same **Tables** page). Fill in **Name**, **Covers** and **POS ID**. For a Comtrex store **POS ID** is required — the form won't save without it.

    **+ Generate range** creates a numbered run of tables in one go, but it doesn't set POS IDs — you'll need to add those afterwards in the grid view (below).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Repeat or import">
    Repeat for every table, or click **Import** to upload a spreadsheet with **Area Name**, **Table Name**, **Covers** and **POS ID** columns.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Tables with a POS ID show a *POS: 12*-style badge in the accordion view. To change a POS ID later, switch to the grid view (the *Grid view* icon button above the plan), then edit the **POS ID** column directly — changes save as you leave the cell.

<Warning>
  The **POS ID** must be the table number exactly as the till knows it. If it's wrong, orders are still sent — the till either opens the check on a different table or rejects it with a table error — and pay at table finds no open bill for the table.
</Warning>

## What Happens on an Order at a Table

1. The guest scans the table's QR code and orders.
2. If the guest has already opened the table's bill in storekit (pay at table), the items are added to that Comtrex check (see [Pay at Table](/docs/guides/integrations/pos/comtrex/pay-at-table#adding-orders-to-an-open-check)).
3. Otherwise storekit sends a new check with `TableNumber` set to the table's POS ID, the configured **Sales Type Number**, and — depending on **Cover Count** — the number of diners.
4. The check appears on the till against that table like any other order.

## Cover Counts

If your till reports covers, set **Cover Count** in the Comtrex settings to **Automatic (number of diners)** so the guest's answer to "how many diners?" is passed through, or **Fixed value** to always send the same number. See [Orders → Cover Count](/docs/guides/integrations/pos/comtrex/orders#cover-count).
