The CNYRIC requires that any requests related to adding or changing access to your food service system come to us via email from your district's Food Service trusted agent. You may or may not be designated by your district as the Food Service trusted agent. Contact us if you have questions about who in your district has permission to request access changes. Access issues take priority, but can be even more quickly addressed if the request comes via email from your trusted agent. Business Officials and Superintendents are always considered Trusted Agents.
