Using Custom Views to Organize Your Data in Gaia

Custom Views in Gaia let you quickly see the exact data you care about—whether it's food items, inventory details, or menu usage—without digging through everything.

🧩 What Are Custom Views?

Custom Views are personalized snapshots of your data, filtered and organized based on the criteria that matter most to you by choosing specific attributes like: categories, meal pattern components, allergens, custom tags, cycle menu usage, storage site, and inventory status.

➕ How to Create a Custom View

  1. Click “Add View” in the Custom Views section.

  2. Give your view a name – something that clearly identifies its purpose (e.g., “Gluten-Free Entrees”).

  3. Choose visibility:

    • Just for you

    • For everyone in the district

  4. Set your filters – select the categories and criteria you want the view to show.

Once saved, your Custom View will instantly organize the data according to your filters—making it easy to access what you need with just a click.
