Larger restaurants, food halls, and multi-room venues quickly outgrow Odoo's stock POS floor editor. Odoo Point of Sale ships with a basic pos.floor and pos.table model set and a simple background editor, but it assumes a handful of rectangular or round tables on a single flat plane. Once you run two or three floors, a rooftop, a private dining room, and a bar with irregular booths, the native editor runs out of road: you cannot model a real seat count per table shape, you cannot see which sections are turning fast versus sitting idle, and merging two parties across tables is a clumsy, error-prone operation for your floor staff during a Friday rush.

POS Restaurant Floor Plan Designer Pro is the layer we build on top of native POS to close that gap. We extend pos.floor and pos.table with new fields and compute methods (models.Model, fields.Integer seat capacity, fields.Selection for shape, @api.depends computed occupancy state) and ship an OWL-based drag-and-drop editor that runs inside the POS frontend. Managers lay out multi-floor and multi-room plans visually, snap tables to a grid, assign custom shapes and sizes, and set exact seat counts per table. On the live POS screen, a color-graded heat-map overlays each table with its current occupancy and turn-time so a host can read the room at a glance and seat the next party into the fastest-turning section. Merge and split are handled visually — drag one table onto another to combine orders, split them back apart when the party separates — with the underlying pos.order links kept consistent.

Technically the module is a clean, upgrade-safe addon: a proper __manifest__.py declaring the POS dependency, ORM extensions rather than core patches, ir.model.access.csv plus record rules so floor-plan editing is limited to manager roles while cashiers get read-only occupancy, XML/OWL views for the editor and heat-map, and optional QWeb reports for section-level occupancy and turn-time summaries. Automated actions or ir.cron jobs can roll up turn-time analytics nightly, and every new model is exposed over Odoo's XML-RPC/JSON-RPC API so a host-stand tablet, a reservations system, or a BI tool can read live table state. It targets Community and Enterprise alike; where Enterprise-only POS features exist we note the difference during scoping and never assume an edition you do not run.

Because this is build-to-order, nothing is a black-box download. After a short scoping call we confirm the exact floors, table shapes, seat rules, and heat-map thresholds you need, then build the version pinned to your Odoo release (17.0, 18.0, or 19.0). Typical delivery is 2 to 4 weeks from confirmed scope. We install it on a staging database first, run UAT with your team against real layouts, then deploy to production with a rollback plan and hand over the full git repository. You own the source, the docs, and a post-go-live support window — no per-seat lock-in and no dependency on a marketplace listing.
