Coming Up This Month...
The
start of school can be a crazy time but HelpDesk is here to make it
easier. With the start of school quickly approaching,
FastDirect wants to make sure your school is ready. In
addition to completing the Summer Transition steps, there are several
other items to be addressed. To stay on top of the many features
and settings that need to be reviewed for the start of school, we have
created a checklist for administrators, as well as separate ones for
teachers and parents. Click the links below to view the
checklists, as well as our FastDirect
Summer Timeline!
HelpDesk
is available to help guide you through these steps - just contact
HelpDesk with an FDmail message or call our toll free number
866.805.3116.

separate fields - one specifically for food related issues and a second
field for other medical conditions.
