RECOMMENDATIONS!
When using the Minute Menu Program, there are many different ways to go about any given task. However, in some cases, there are certain shortcuts or certain steps that you can take so you spend less time recording your claim information.
Here are some tips you may find useful.
1. IES/Enrollment Forms
When you enroll a new child in your care, the Food Program requires a lot of information. You will enroll that child into Minute Menu so you can begin claiming the child immediately, But it can take quite some time to enter all of the information for a newly-enrolled child. So, before you start, print the Blank IES/Enrollment Form. Give this Form to your parents to fill out overnight. When they bring it back, you'll have all the information you need to enroll the child into Minute Menu, so that you won't have to constantly stop and restart while you try to find all of the required information.
To print the IES/Enrollment Form, go to the Child>>>Entered the info into Minute Menu>>> when you SAVE, it will ask if you want to Print Form>>>> click YES and the form will pop up for you to print.
***Remember! Mail the printed enrollment form into your Sponsor with your claim.
***YES Inc. Must have an Enrollment form on File to Activate Children into the MM system.
2. Daily Meal Count & Attendance (POS)
Print this report out before you start the week. You can manually record your meal & attendance information during the day on this printed report. At the end of the meal/day, record the entire day at once using the notes you've written on the Daily Meal Worksheet. This way, you spend much less time dealing with your claim paperwork, so that you have more time to focus on your kids.
SPECIAL NOTE: Point of Service Meal Counts MUST be recorded either manually or entered into the Minute Menu system at each meal service!
To print the Daily Meal Worksheet, go to the menu Reports >> Attendance >> Weekly Attendance + Meal Count Report. Click the Print button after the report comes on screen.
