Managing ADRs for 2 groups in one party

[Mum23]

We are headed down with my parents for a total of 7 people. I was trying to get something for all of us but they only had a 5 and a 2 so I booked the 5 and it would let me book them for a group of 2. Is there a way I can manage these things as 2 "parties" online through DME (hehe right? DME??) or do I need to call if I want to change any of theres to be separate from us? I know there are several places they want to try but we can't go to for other reasons.

TIA!

If they want to eat elsewhere, they will need a new reservation.

Right but I want to keep my reservation for 5 and book them one elsewhere. I can't do that through MDE can I? They consider it a double booking. It would be nice if you could book at 2 different places but not exceed the total number in your party so it wasn't such a PITB to try and book for 2 different places at the same or similar times.
