  1. Sodium Level - The current USDA approved sodium target, Target 1A, will be applied to menu nutrient analysis.

  2. Production Forecasting - select a production forecasting method. The selected option will determine if and how TITAN pre-populates production records with forecasted numbers.
    None - TITAN will not pre-populate numbers on the production record.
    Percent of Menu Plan - TITAN will pre-populate numbers for each item on the production record as follows:
    (Planned Quantity on Menu Plan) / (Reimbursable Meals Planned on Menu Plan) * (Reimbursable Meals Planned on Production Record)
    Three Day Moving Average - TITAN will pre-populate numbers for each item on the production record as an average of up to the last 3 times the item was planned and served for the same building, serving session, and meal (Configuration > Menu Planning > Meals). The average is proportional to the total number of offered meals.
    Note: Only production records in Posted or Inventory Withdrawn status will be eligible to be included in the average.

  3. Whole Grain Rich Waiver - Select this option if the district is exempt from whole grain rich requirements. Otherwise select a Whole Grain-Rich Weekly Target of 50%, 80%, or 100% for the weekly whole grain target for any menus after July 1, 2022.

  4. Low Fat Flavored Milk Waiver - Select this option if the district is allowed to serve low fat flavored milk rather than only skim flavored milk.
    Note: This waiver does not need to be selected if following one of the 2019 meal patterns as this waiver was granted to all districts.

  5. Remove Inventory on Production Record Posting - For districts that have both Production Records and Inventory, a Deduct Inventory button will be available after posting the production record.
