Manually Disallow Meals

Sometimes, you may need to manually disallow meals based off of an error on the Office Error Report (OER). For example, the OER may warn a meal, you investigate the error, and you discover that the meal should be disallowed instead. You can manually disallow this meal on the Manually Disallow Meals page.
