What’s the Difference Between a Library Name and an Override?
KidKeeper uses two levels of naming:
1) Library Name
This is the master food item stored in your Food Library.
Example:
Apples
This name appears everywhere unless overridden.
2) Override (“Served As”)
This is a day-specific description.
Example:
Library: Apples
Served As: Apple slices
Overrides apply only to:
- One date
- One meal
They do not rename the food globally.
When to Rename vs Override
Rename globally if:
- The original name was misspelled.
- You want a permanent change everywhere.
Use an override if:
- The preparation differs.
- It’s a one-time change.
- You want more detail for documentation.
