# Take orders at the table, or run parcel only

Tap a dining table, or start a parcel ticket. Takeaway-only shops and food trucks do not need a table named Parcel.

Many small restaurants still walk to a counter machine to punch a bill. During rush that queue is the bottleneck, and the table is waiting.

SpoonCub opens on the floor. Occupied vs free is visible when you use dining tables. Open tickets show value. Tap the table you are standing at and build the order there.

# A normal round

- Sign in with your restaurant code and username

- Tap the table, or start a parcel ticket

- Add items from categories (veg / non-veg marked)

- Checkout with a discount if needed, then pick UPI, Cash, Card, or Other

Takeaway-only shops are supported directly. Use **Parcel**. Several takeaway tickets can be open at once, with an optional name or reference. You do not need a dining table, and you do not need a table named Parcel.
