Menu Icons
Icons on the menu calendar can assist users in assessing their compliance with recordkeeping requirements, including whether menus and meal counts are up-to-date, and if there is a whole grain rich food.
- Numbered List: means that a meal count has been entered.
- Fork & Knife: means that a menu has been planned. The name of the meal turns green once both a menu and meal count have been entered.
- Child: means that an infant menu has been planned.
- Food Production Record: means that a food production record has been created for this meal.
- CN Label: means a food was added requiring additional documentation in the form of a CN Label or Product Formulation Statement.
- Individual Infant Feeding Records: red means that an infant has been checked in for a meal. Once each infant checked in for a meal has an individual infant feeding record, the icon will turn green.
- Site Closures: means that the site was recorded as closed or on a holiday that day.
- Juice: means that juice was served that day. The software automatically prevents juice from being served twice in one day.
- Whole Grain Rich: green means you have served a food that is whole grain-rich. If you have not served a food that is whole grain-rich, the icon is red.
- Meat/Meat Alternate: means that a meat/meat alternate was served at breakfast instead of a grain. The software automatically limits those substitutions to three times per week.
- Bus or Bus with Slash: school bus means the child care facility is open and school is in session (i.e. school-agers are not expected at morning snack or lunch); school bus with slash means the child care facility is open but school is not in session (i.e. school-agers are expected at morning snack or lunch)
