# How to Manage Restaurant Opening Hours

# How to Manage Restaurant Opening Hours

|| The Opening Hours section allows restaurant owners to set the days and times when their restaurant is available for customers. These hours apply across your restaurant services unless a specific service has its own opening-hour settings.

## How to Access Opening Hours

1. Go to **Settings** from the left-side menu.
2. Open **Restaurant Profile**.
3. Select the **Opening Hours** tab.

## Opening Hours

You will see the opening-hours settings for each day of the week:

* Monday
* Tuesday
* Wednesday
* Thursday
* Friday
* Saturday
* Sunday

For each day, you can configure whether your restaurant is open and define its operating hours.

### 1. Open / Closed

Use the toggle next to each day to control whether your restaurant is open.

* **Enabled:** The restaurant is open on that day.
* **Disabled:** The restaurant is closed on that day.

### 2. Set Opening and Closing Time

When a day is enabled, select the required time from the **Hours** fields.

For example:

**Monday:** 10:00 → 22:00

This means the restaurant is open from **10:00 AM to 10:00 PM**.

### 3. 24 Hours

If your restaurant operates throughout the entire day, enable the **24 Hours** option.

For example:

**Tuesday:** 00:00 → 24:00

This indicates that the restaurant is available for the entire day.

### 4. Add Multiple Time Slots

You can use **+ Add slot** when your restaurant has multiple operating periods on the same day.

For example:

**Monday**

* 10:00 → 14:00
* 17:00 → 22:00

This is useful when your restaurant closes for a break and opens again later.

## Save Your Changes

After configuring the opening hours, click **Save Changes** to apply the updated schedule.

Your restaurant's opening-hour settings will then be used when determining when your services are available to customers.

||| Important Note: If you do not set your own opening hours here, the system will automatically use the business hours you configured when you first created your restaurant/business. You only need to configure these hours if you want to use different opening hours.

### Example

If your restaurant normally operates from **10:00 AM to 10:00 PM**, you can configure:

| Day | Opening Hours |
| ---- | ---- |
| Monday | 10:00 – 22:00 |
| Tuesday | 10:00 – 22:00 |
| Wednesday | 10:00 – 22:00 |
| Thursday | 10:00 – 22:00 |
| Friday | 10:00 – 22:00 |
| Saturday | 10:00 – 22:00 |
| Sunday | 10:00 – 22:00 |

|| If you do not configure these hours separately, the system will continue using your business hours from the initial restaurant setup.
