Meal Count Method [Setting]
This setting controls how meal counts are entered. Meal Count records are a requirement of the CACFP.
To use this setting:
- Login as a sponsor admin user and click on Site Details from the main site dashboard.
- Find the dropdown labeled Meal Count Method under Required Site Information.
- Select from:
- Roster: This means that you are selecting the names of individual participants (children or adult day care clients) for each meal.
- Headcount: This means that you are just counting the number of participants (children or adult day care clients) present for a meal and entering that number. You are not tracking which participants are attending each specific meal.
- Scroll to the top or bottom of the page and click the green Save button.
