About the Snack Delivery Worksheet in the Touch App
The snack delivery worksheet lists the snacks to be served for residents or patients. This worksheet is designed to be used during “snack pass” to inform you of what snacks to deliver.
The worksheet lists snacks for each person based on their diet type, any diet restrictions set against the diet type, their allergens, and their personal menu customizations. Any service snack notes that were entered for a person via their profile are also included.

Running the Snack Delivery Worksheet
Under People Reports, tap Snack Delivery Worksheet (first screenshot below). The Snack Delivery Worksheet screen appears (second screenshot below).
- Select the date.
- Select the snack time (Snack AM, Snack PM, or Snack HS).
- Select from the following options:
- Include Date of Birth - includes the person’s date of birth.
- Include Daily Notes - prints any service snack notes that were entered for a person via their profile. It is recommended to include the notes in the worksheet.
- All Choices - snacks will be listed under their assigned choice headings (choice 1, choice 2). The All Choices option is ideal for the select service (advanced ordering or table select) in which snack options are chosen by a resident. If All Choices is not selected, then only choice 1 snacks will be listed without a choice heading, which is ideal for the non-select service where snacks are not chosen by a resident.
- Select the residence locations to run the worksheet for. Note: The order in which the residence areas are listed onscreen can be adjusted in the MealSuite core system; see Sorting the Residence Areas for instructions. Any adjustments you make will take approximately 15 minutes to be updated in Touch.
- Tap the Create Report button to generate the worksheet.

Where is the Info Pulled from for the Snack Delivery Worksheet?
The people to be included in the worksheet are pulled from their assigned residence areas that you select when running the worksheet (instructions above).
The snacks listed in the worksheet for a person come from a scheduled snack menu that shares the same menu service location of the person's residence area enabled as a dining area (by default all residence areas are enabled as a dining area to allow for in-room delivery).
In addition, any items (i.e., personal item, specific substitute or fallback substitute) that have been added to a person's personal menu in a snack time (AM, PM, HS) are also listed in the worksheet.

FAQs
For my snack report, a snack item is not printing/displaying?
If a snack is not printing on the Snack Delivery Worksheet run from the Touch app, it could be that the snack is in a choice setting on the menu that is not choice 1 in the MealSuite core system (first screenshot below). Therefore when running the Snack Delivery Worksheet in the Touch app, ensure that the All Choices option is selected (second screenshot below).
