Sponsors of Homes

• A home visit review that was accidentally submitted for the wrong provider has been corrected and now appears under the intended home provider's record.
• Fixed an issue where fruit juices were being incorrectly flagged with an asterisk on the Claimed Food and Attendance report. All affected juice items were valid and should not have been flagged, which was causing audit concerns.
• Fixed an issue where provider capacity updates were not syncing correctly between HX and KidKare, resulting in providers displaying incorrect and mismatched capacity counts.
• When a home provider only serves infants and preschoolers and leaves the school-aged capacity field blank, the Maximum Capacity on the License tab now correctly reflects the highest entered age group value instead of displaying zero.
• Fixed an issue where some providers were still displaying incorrect tier types in the Illinois State Provider Upload File following a previous correction.

Sponsors of Centers

• Fixed an issue where some sponsor users were unable to click Accept to verify receipts after selecting them on the Receipt Verification page.
• A confirmation dialog has been added to the Copy Menu feature to warn sponsors before overwriting existing foods and food quantities at a center, preventing accidental data loss.
• Fixed an issue where Income Eligibility Forms (IEFs) showing a "Submitted (Site)" or "Submitted (Parent)" status in the eForms Reporting module were not appearing in the Approve & Renew queue or the View Status page, preventing sponsors from taking action on those forms.

Sponsored Centers

• Fixed an issue where all children were automatically marked as present in meal attendance without any staff action. The attendance page now shows a clear error and prevents saving when required meal data cannot be loaded.
• Fixed an issue where Actual Quantities Served were not being automatically calculated for non-infant menus after recording attendance, even when the auto-calculate setting was turned on.
• Fixed an issue where removed centers were appearing in the center dropdown on the Approve & Renew page. Removed centers no longer display in this list.
• Fixed an issue where some child records were not populating the IEF Expiration Date, FRP, and FRP Basis fields on the Approve & Renew page, preventing completion of renewals for associated Enrollment Forms and IEFs.
• Fixed an issue where children enrolled by center staff and left in Pending status were not being correctly blocked from claims when later withdrawn. These children now receive the appropriate enrollment error during claim processing.
• Fixed an issue where saved meal attendance was disappearing for center users when returning for the next mealtime. Two specific bugs contributing to this behavior have been resolved so that meal data is now saved and retained correctly.
