| 21 | h2. Menu plans |
||
| 22 | |||
| 23 | Menus are organized in a 'Menu plan', which consists of |
||
| 24 | |||
| 25 | * a number of rotation days |
||
| 26 | * a number of menus for each rotation day |
||
| 27 | * a number of recipes for each menu |
||
| 28 | |||
| 29 | The menu plan itself has two parameters that can be adjusted: |
||
| 30 | |||
| 31 | * name |
||
| 32 | * number of rotation days |
||
| 33 | |||
| 34 | h2. Rotation days |
||
| 35 | |||
| 36 | Each menu plan has a number of rotation days, e.g. 12. A menu plan with 12 rotation days will have menus and recipes repeat every 12 days. |
||
| 37 | |||
| 38 | h3. Viewing the list of rotation days |
||
| 39 | |||
| 40 | The <b>Rotation days</b> link under <i>Parameters</i> in the Economat menu links to the list of rotation days that have been defined. |
||
| 41 | |||
| 42 | Each Rotation day has a sequence number, a name, and a list of associated recipes, organized per meal. |
||
| 43 | |||
| 44 | A typical 12-day rotation would have these rotation days defined: |

||
| 47 | |||
| 48 | The name of each rotation day is arbitrary. The sequence numbers assigned to each day determine the order in which the rotation days will appear in the menu plan. |
||
| 49 | |||
| 50 | 3 | Ward Vandewege | h3. Out-of-rotation days |
| 51 | 2 | Ward Vandewege | |
| 52 | Sometimes a special menu is required on a specific day. Take for instance this example: |
||
| 53 | |||
| 54 | 1 | Ward Vandewege | !20130518-special-day-rotation-day.png! |
| 55 | 3 | Ward Vandewege | |
| 56 | This line from the Rotation days list defines a special, out-of-rotation day. The first thing to note is the sequence number: it is set to an arbitrary number, in this case 1181. |
||
| 57 | |||
| 58 | Rotation days can have any sequence number, as long as it is unique - there can be no two rotation days with sequence number 11, for instance. |
||
| 59 | |||
| 60 | The sequence number for this rotation day is larger than 12, which is the number of rotation days defined in our menu plan. Because it is larger than 12, this rotation day will not be part of the standard rotation. For that reason, its background is light grey instead of white, when shown in the list of rotation days. |
||
| 61 | |||
| 62 | Because this is not a standard rotation day, it makes sense to give it a more meaningful name. In this case, 'Swiss National Day'. |
