Use it to brief your team or to adapt into your own staff training. ### Step 1 – Guest scans the QR code - The guest uses their **phone camera** to scan the QR code at their table or counter. - This automatically opens a browser window to your **Table Ordering storefront**. - No separate QR app is usually needed – QR scanning is supported natively on modern smartphones. **Operational tip for you:** Ensure QR codes are: - Clearly visible and easy to scan from a seated position - Placed on the correct tables or zones, matching your set‑up in Controls ⚠️ To ensure the continued functionality of your printed QR codes, we recommend refraining from renaming your location. Changing the location name will result in a new QR code being generated, which will render all existing printed QR codes inactive. ### Step 2 – Guest selects their table - Once the storefront loads, the guest is prompted to **select their table number** (or relevant identifier). - This number is what will show on your Slerp app/tablet instead of the guest’s name. ![](https://support.slerp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Mar-27-2026-01-00-44-1433-PM.png?width=909&height=582&name=image-png-Mar-27-2026-01-00-44-1433-PM.png) **Operational tip for you:** Make sure table numbers or identifiers are: - Clearly marked on each table. - Consistent with what you have configured in Controls for Table Ordering. ### Step 3 – Guest browses and builds their order - Guests browse your live **menu**, including: - Categories (e.g. Drinks, Starters, Mains, Desserts). - Modifiers and options. - Any allergen or dietary information you have configured. - They then add items to their basket. **Service recommendation:** - For food: Consider encouraging guests to order **as a table** to support the kitchen with batching and ticket management. - For drinks or nibbles: Individual ordering can work well, allowing guests to top up as needed. ### Step 4 – Guest reviews cart and pays - Once they’re ready, the guest goes to the **cart** to: - Review items and quantities. - Add any additional notes (where enabled). - Confirm the table number. - The guest then **checks out and pays** using your configured payment options. After payment: - The order appears on your **Slerp app/tablet** as an **ASAP Pickup** order labelled with the table number. - Your team prepares the order and **runs it to the correct table** using that identifier. ![](https://support.slerp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Dec-16-2023-05-54-30-5631-PM.png?width=670&height=316&name=image-png-Dec-16-2023-05-54-30-5631-PM.png) - [Controls Dashboard](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Insights](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#insights) - [Orders Tab](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#orders-tab) - [Locations Tab](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#locations-tab) - [Products Tab](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#products-tab) - [Discounts / Customers Tab](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#discounts-customers-tab) - [Loyalty](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#loyalty) - [Designer Tab](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#designer-tab) - [Composer Tab](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#composer-tab) - [Dispatch Self-Serve](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#dispatch-self-serve) - [Settings Tab](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/controls-dashboard?hsLang=en#settings-tab) - [Web Ordering](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/web-ordering?hsLang=en) - [App Ordering](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/app-ordering?hsLang=en) - [Partner App & Device](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/partner-app-device?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Slerp App](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/partner-app-device?hsLang=en#slerp-app) - [Printer & Hardware Devices](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/partner-app-device?hsLang=en#printer-hardware-devices) - [Delivery](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/delivery?hsLang=en#main-content) - [On Demand Last Mile Delivery](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/delivery?hsLang=en#on-demand-last-mile-delivery) - [Local And Nationwide Delivery](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/delivery?hsLang=en#local-and-nationwide-delivery) - [Slerp Success & Marketing](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/slerp-success-marketing?hsLang=en) - [Finance Enquiries](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/finance-enquiries?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Finance FAQ](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/finance-enquiries?hsLang=en#finance-faq) - [Reporting](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/finance-enquiries?hsLang=en#reporting) - [Invoice, Credit Notes and VAT Receipts](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/finance-enquiries?hsLang=en#invoice-credit-notes-and-vat-receipts) - [Franchise Attribution](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/finance-enquiries?hsLang=en#franchise-attribution) - [Integrations](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Slerp Menu & Order Manager](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#slerp-menu-order-manager) - [Deliverect](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#deliverect) - [Lightspeed](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#lightspeed) - [CRM](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#crm) - [3S POS](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#3s-pos) - [Urban Piper](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#urban-piper) - [Shipday](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#shipday) - [Custom Webhooks](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/integrations?hsLang=en#custom-webhooks) - [FAQs](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/faqs?hsLang=en) - [Support and Updates](https://support.slerp.com/knowledge/support-and-updates?hsLang=en) [![slerp.com](https://support.slerp.com/hs-fs/hubfs/SLERP_Primary-Light_RGB-01-1.png?width=200&height=56&name=SLERP_Primary-Light_RGB-01-1.png "slerp.com")](http://www.slerp.com) [Contact Us](https://www.slerp.com/contact-us/) Copyright © 2025, Slerp
