  1. From the detailed scheduling view, indicate the week that you want the menu item to be scheduled for.


  1. Click on the days of the week that the menu item will be available in your canteen.


  1. Will the schedule you have indicated above repeat itself in the coming weeks? If no, click “No” and hit on “Save” button to save the schedule for that menu item.


  1. If your schedule indicated above will repeat itself in the coming weeks, click on “Yes” and specify how the repetition will occur: whether every week, every two weeks, etc.
