Meal Period Setup is used for restaurants that may have a full breakfast in the morning and then switches to a lunch/dinner menu. Meal Periods enable the restaurant to automatically switch from full breakfast to the regular menu without manual intervention. Meal Periods work with Timed Events in order to setup the times of the Meal Period.
