4. Delete only after reviewing the impact

Choose Delete menu and read the confirmation. Verify the intended menu was removed and inspect any existing orders for that day.

Before you finish

  • Deleting a menu preserves existing order history. It is not a substitute for cancelling an order.

  • Unpublishing does not establish that an already placed order, invoice or family message was reversed.

  • Use a No service entry when you need to communicate that a meal will not be offered on a particular day.
