Overview

This article explains how to set one or more Default Meal Plans for one or more pupils from the Meals Log. The Default Meal Plan defines what school meals a pupil has chosen to eat in the future, day-by-day, week-by-week and month-by-month. Use the Default Meal Plan at the start of each academic year, term, half-term or week (based on your needs) to populate the selected pupils' choices.
