How to Use the Meals Section

The Meals tab displays a list of children with food restrictions.  

The Prohibited Meal Types shows the type of meals the child is not allowed to have i.e. Eggs, Beef. On days their daycare group is being served a meal with any of these prohibited items in it, the kitchen or check knows that the child needs to be served an alternative meal.

NOTE: Prohibited Meal Types must first be set up in Setup>Center>Customizations. Only those with admin privileges can access the Setup module.

    2. You can also filter by meal type. Click the drop-down arrow beside Prohibited Meal Types and select the meal type. 
        This will then show a list of only children with the selected food allergy or preference.
