Reuse a month’s meal pattern in a different month. The tool matches weekday occurrences rather than identical calendar dates.

1. Open the source month

In Meals → Menus, navigate to the month to reuse. Choose Plan tools → Duplicate this month.

2. Choose the destination and scope

Set Into to the target month. Leave Copy every offered meal type selected for all offered services, or clear it to copy the selected meal type.

Check the destination month and whether all meal types are included.

Check the destination month and whether all meal types are included.

3. Create the drafts

Choose Create drafts. The first Monday maps to the first Monday, the second Tuesday to the second Tuesday, and so on where the target date exists.

4. Review the whole target month

Read the creation result and inspect missing dates, holidays, choices, prices and notes. Publish the reviewed drafts separately.

Before you finish

  • Existing destination menus are never overwritten. A month with a different weekday pattern can have gaps.

  • Copying a month does not publish it or reproduce existing child orders.
