Once you create a menu template. You can then assign it rooms across multiple weeks. Once assigned, it will be visible to Parent contacts and staff in their assigned rooms.

When assigning a menu template to a room, it creates a unique copy that can be edited without affecting the original template. This is helpful if you wish to further customize the menu only for that specific room or week.


Assign a menu to a room

  1. Log in on the web

  2. Click My School > Menu in the sidebar

  3. In the Menu templates tab, hit Actions > Assign to room next to the desired menu

  4. Select the room and start/end date for the menu

Once a menu is assigned, it can be viewed on the menu schedule under the Room menus tab and will be visible to Parents and staff.

Important notes:

  • Assigning a menu template will replace any existing menus for that room and date range. To avoid overwriting, first check the Room menus tab to see what’s scheduled.

  • You can edit assigned food quantities/portions by age group before assigning to a room without affecting the original template. You can keep the template’s portions or apply a selected age group across all items by selecting Template portions.
