Receipt Totals Policy

This policy impacts what centers need to complete when entering expenses.

Oftentimes, a receipt contains expenses from multiple categories (for example, both food and non-food supplies on one receipt) or the receipt may contain some CACFP expenses and some non-reimbursable expenses.

Select Required if you need the total of all expenses included on the receipt to be entered into My Food Program. Note that we have an expense category called "non-reimbursable expenses included on receipt" that can be used to make the receipt total add up, but those expenses will not be credited toward the center's nonprofit food service account.

Select Optional if you do not use My Food Program for tracking expenses used to demonstrate a nonprofit food service or you do not need receipt totals.
