Recording Substitutions for Special Dietary Needs

On the Meal Details screen you will find a button that allows users to "Record Substitutions for Special Dietary Needs" (1).


When users click on this button, the system will display a list of names of any participants with a special dietary need on-file along with the information from the special diet statement (2).


To record a substitution:

  • Put a checkbox by any participant that had a substitution
  • Indicate the food omitted
  • Indicate the food substituted
  • Indicate the portion Size
  • Indicate if it was provided by the parent or the center/provider (this will pre-fill based on the preference indicated on the Special Diet Form).
  • Add any additional meal substitutions/notes
  • Click the green "Save" button.


The inputs from this screen appear on our report called Substitutions for Special Dietary Needs.
