yes, I think most of us did....part of making the switch was the transfer of our info from the old system to the new system, including credit for any payments we'd made to minute menu

Wait, if you go to Reports:Child:Child In/Out Times

you can get a month with everyone's clock in and clock out times

Thanks, I guess I'll get over the trauma soon enough, .

I am switching from billing hourly to billing daily, so maybe it won't be that bad. I'll have to check it out when I actually see it.

Thank you!

I did know. I was hearing about it being a major upgrade, but the only upgrade I've encountered to date is cosmetic (the site LOOKS nicer than MM). MM seemed SO outdated, and I knew that there had to be a better way. Unfortunately, MM is easier to enter check in/out and meals by far. Which means it really isn't an upgrade for me, but a way for me to spend MORE time on something I hate doing in the first place!

Here, if you put a date period instead of just one day at a time you can do it

Wait! Mind blown! Was that start and end date always there? Ok, KidKare is looking better to me now! Thanks so much for showing me that.

Yep. It is the salt in the wound.

I heard October 1st but my rep just texted me and said my agency said NO LATER than August 31. I too am procrastinating. I will make the change but not until August 31st....probably around 11PM

I plan on printing everything out for taxes on September 29th, then freehand Oct-Dec and hope for the best.

My hope is they will have the kinks worked out before the big force out. Their constant facebook page apologies make me less hopeful.

[Alwaysgreener]

Ugh. I hated Minute Menu, but I'd give anything to have it back now!

Has anyone here had a problem with kids who were signed in having their times disappear? I noticed it before I submitted my last claim, called my sponsor (who hadn't heard the complaint from anyone else), went back and added the times in AGAIN, and was shorted for 11 meals in my report because it showed the kids as not present.

I am hoping someone else has seen this and heard of how to fix?

It has happened to me, I have lost meals because of KK. I have refreshed the screen and seen check out times disappear. I have deleted a meal and have it not delete but kk removed the kids from the meal. And when I run any report the meal does not come up in the report but it did in reps report and when I go to that day and meal directly.
I proved to my rep that it doesn't come up on my report nor can you save a meal with out a least one child in attendance for that meal. She removed the warning off my account. But won't do anything when a child's in or out disappeared. I verbally told her that she holding things against me that are out of my control and that when we used mm I wasn't getting errors once I learned the system (those were my fault or maybe hers for confusing me, either way I didn't protest those)
No I don't have a solution, but to create a meal and attendance report before you submit then email the report to your rep.

Thanks for the response to my question-I hadn't considered saving the report for my rep. I'll definitely do that from now on!

I save mine by "print to pdf" and email it in. Just in case...because I don't trust.

Actually, Minute Menu sold out to a completely different company that is doing the "upgrades" to Kid Kare. It is NOT the same company that has been doing Minute Menu for all these years. That is why the same features are not being included. It blows my mind that any company would go live with such a terrible product and expect to survive.

Can you believe I haven't even started on KK yet? We had until this month to do the switch-over. Haha Nothing like the last minute for me.

It can't be that bad, is it, if you don't do invoicing or anything else on it, except enter the foods/children?

That's all I use it for and I haven't had any problems.

[amberrose3dg]

I only use it for menus for food program. It works fine for me. I guess I like being able to use my phone. It saves on the paperwork later so to speak.::

That is all I use it for and I have issues too. I had error found only on my consultant end, that caused me to loose a refund for that meal and every month before I submit, I have to go back and clock a child out from random days. (The same child, I do all clock in and out at the same time.)
Last week kk decided to do updates in the middle of the day on cereal and yogurt. Both items I had served and I was unable to enter them. I had to call my consultant and explain to her that I could not find the food to enter them, just in case they did not appear again that day. I also sent a ticket into kk and asked why were they updating during the day when providers needed to enter meals. The actually responded with they would not do that again. During their update my screen refreshed and I got locked out of my account and had to reset my password. Then when I got in I had lost the meal I was entering and had to start over. Wasted my whole nap time on this, not joking.
