Disallow Meals Not Listed on Participant Enrollment Form

The CACFP regulations require that child care centers and family child care homes collect enrollment forms that include typical arrival and departure times and meals typically eaten while in care. My Food Program stores that information as part of a participant schedule.

There are three ways that we can treat this participant schedule:

1. We can ignore the schedule and let meals and snacks for which the participant was checked in to be claimed.
2. We can enforce the schedule always disallow meals and snacks unless they are on the participant schedule.
3. We can enforce the schedule and disallow meals unless there is a reason provided.

The feature to Disallow Meals Not Listed on Participant Enrollment Forms works with the option to Allow Sites to Override the Disallow for Meals Not Listed on Participant Enrollment Form

To determine whether to disallow meals if they are not on the participant schedule:

• Login as a Sponsor Admin
• Click on the Setup Tab

• Click on Sponsor Setup

• Scroll down to the checkbox labeled "Disallow Meals Not Listed on Participant Enrollment Form (Child Care Centers and Family Day Care Homes Only)"
