This article will explain the set up and use of the Automatic Student Meal Default feature.
Default menu items allow you to set a default meal for students based on their school and grade. Then, when the students go through the serving line and enter their number or scan their barcode, they will automatically be charged for the correct meal. This can speed up your serving line because it eliminates the need to have the cashier select the correct meal item for each student. Did a particular student bring a cold lunch to school and just need to be charged for a milk? No problem! Our program has a change-to-milk button that makes this easy to do. The change-to-milk button can be found here: LCS1000>Lines>Line Settings.
