Set the hours for each day and the holidays you stay closed. The menu tells guests whether you're open and until when, and no order comes in after hours.

**Short answer:** In Restoman each location has its own week, with up to four ranges a day and ranges that run past midnight, plus closures for holidays or one-off days. With that, the menu says whether the location is open and until when, or when it opens again; takeaway orders only come in during opening hours, and items sold out "until tomorrow" come back when the next service starts.

## 01. Why put your hours in the system

Hours that live on a sign or a social profile don't stop an order at 3 a.m. or warn anyone about a holiday. Set in Restoman, they drive the menu, the orders and the sold-out items.

- **No orders after hours.** While the location is closed, guests can browse the menu but can't order or pay.
- **Guests know when to come back.** The menu says "Open until 12:30 AM", or closed and when it opens, on the location's clock.
- **Holidays, announced.** A closure takes that day out of the week, and the menu shows it in the location's hours.

## 02. How you set them

Open them from Locations, with "Hours" on the location's row. The owner, the admins and the location's manager change them.

- **The week, day by day.** On each day, "Add hours" with the opening and closing time. Up to four ranges a day, such as lunch and dinner.
- **Past midnight.** 7:00 PM to 12:30 AM is entered as is: "next day" shows beside it, and it counts for the day it opens.
- **Closures.** A single day or several in a row, with a reason only your team sees. They clear themselves once they're over.
- **How it stands now.** The top says whether the location is open and until when, or when it opens, on its own clock.

## 03. What else depends on your hours

Opening hours aren't just a detail for guests: they're how the rest of the system knows when the location is working.

- **Takeaway orders.** With no hours set, the location shows as closed and takeaway orders can't be turned on.
- **Pickup times.** The scheduled pickup times offered to guests are today's, within the location's hours.
- **Sold out until tomorrow.** A dish marked sold out "Until tomorrow" comes back on its own when the location's next service starts.

## And also

- **Past midnight.** A 7:00 PM to 12:30 AM range counts for the day it opens.
- **Holidays.** Single days or runs of days when the location stays closed.
- **On the location's clock.** Open or closed by the location's time, not the phone's.
- **No orders after hours.** When closed, guests can browse but not order.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I set hours that run past midnight?

Yes. Enter them as they are, for example 7:00 PM to 12:30 AM: "next day" shows beside it, and the range counts for the day it opens.

### Can I open for lunch and dinner on the same day?

Yes. Each day can have up to four ranges. If two overlap, Restoman tells you when you save.

### How do I add a holiday?

Add a closure with the day, or a range of days, and if you like a reason such as "New Year's Day", which only your team sees. That day the menu shows the location as closed.

### What if a location has no hours set?

It shows as closed and takes no orders. To turn on takeaway orders, the location needs its hours.

### Who can change the hours?

The owner, the admins and the location's manager. The accountant can see them but not change them.
