Who it’s for · Mini golf & putting courses
A mini golf day, mapped.
This is the kind of venue Wayside grew up in. The Acres runs putting, a driving range, and a bar and kitchen on one patron record; here is a normal operating day at a course like it, and where Wayside connects it, drawn from modules that run in production today.
Where records split
The booking stops at the window. The round, the fries, and the party start new records.
A family checks in at the window, plays a round, orders at the counter, and asks about a birthday party on the way out. Each of those can run correctly while the next desk loses the family’s history.
- BOOKING Family of four checks in Membership is on another screen SEPARATE RECORD
- COURSE 18 holes · scorecard The round is not a visit SEPARATE RECORD
- COMMERCE Fries and drinks Receipt is detached from the family SEPARATE RECORD
- EVENTS Birthday inquiry No connection to prior visits SEPARATE RECORD
Avery’s household books a round, adds a range session, orders lunch, and later asks about a family event. Wayside joins those provider records on Avery’s visit history. That is the shape running at The Acres today.

The day, mapped
Where Wayside connects a normal day.
-
Doors open
The morning list is short and human: who is booked today, which memberships lapse this week, and who is back after a long break.
WAYSIDEThe Today view puts arrivals, renewals, and returns in front of whoever opens.
-
A family walks in
The register rings a round and two lemonades. The family keeps score on their phones instead of a paper card.
WAYSIDEPOS activity and live scoring attach to the same patrons, so the visit adds up to people instead of three receipts.
-
A birthday inquiry lands
A parent asks about a party for twelve. They came twice this summer; the reply should know that.
WAYSIDEEvent inquiries join the patron relationship, venue rules, and availability, so the response starts with context.
-
The round ends at the window
Fries and drinks after the eighteenth hole. A member asks what their pass covers.
WAYSIDEOrders become part of the visit, and membership benefits resolve at the counter instead of in someone's memory.
-
Close
The till balances. On most software, that is where the day ends.
WAYSIDEVisits, scores, orders, and inquiries stay on the patron record. A good day doesn't disappear when the doors close.
-
The return loop
Nine newly identified family patrons came to Saturday's party. Invite them back while the memory is fresh.
WAYSIDE · RETURN WORKERThe Return Worker drafts the invitation; the operator approves, edits, or skips. The outcome receipt dates what follows.
Product surfaces
Put the shared record at the handoffs that need it.
FIRST CONNECTION TO TESTStart between the window and the event desk: name the source record, the missing field, and the person who needs it next.
