How to add menu items to a menu
Now let's see how to add menu items to a menu that we have created. To be able to do this, you should
have already created your menu items for your canteen.
Ensure you are on the canteen module of SmartSapp by selecting canteen from the list of SmartSapp
modules.

Locate ‘menu’ from the list of canteen features on the left side of your canteen window.

Click on the name of the menu to view the details of the menu you want to add menu items to.

You can also use the action button of the menu to view the details of the menu.

You can begin to add menu items to your menu from the details view of the menu by clicking on
any cell within the menu for the day you want the menu items to be added to.

On the modal provided, begin to add your preferred menu items to the various meal categories by
searching for them in the search boxes provided within each meal category of your menu.

A successful menu item addition on the menu item addition modal should look as below.

When you have two or more menu items added to a meal category for a specific day, check on the
check boxes that indicate Optional for all the menu items within that category for that day that you
want parents to make a choice from for their children.

Click done when you are done adding the menu items for the day selected. The menu items will by
default be scheduled on the day corresponding to the cell that you selected to add the menu items.
In this case, if the cell you clicked on was within Friday, then the menu items added will be scheduled for
that Friday.
