Diet Types

The screenshot is from the new users interface (via the toggle in the right hand corner)

To restrict users from being able to select Items with conflicting Diet Types the Diet Type tab [1] contains a check list of dietary restrictions for cultural or religious purposes e.g. Halal.

When a Diet Type (i.e. Halal [2]) is selected any conflicting Diet Types will be Un-selectable [3] (greyed out), this applied to the following:

  • If Suitable for Vegan is ticked Admin users can also select Suitable for Vegetarian, Suitable for Pescatarian and Suitable for Halal.
  • If Suitable for Vegetarian is ticked Admin users can also select Suitable for Halal, Suitable for Vegan, Suitable for Pescatarian.
  • If Suitable for Pescatarian is ticked Admin users can also select Suitable for Vegan, Suitable for Vegetarian and Suitable for Halal.
  • If Suitable for Halal is ticked Admin users can also select Suitable for Vegetarian, Suitable for Pescatarian, Suitable for Vegan and Contains Beef.
  • If Contains Beef is ticked Admin users can also select Contains Pork and Suitable for Halal.
  • If Contains Pork is ticked Admin users can also select Contains Beef.

Legacy Conflicting Diet Types

When an existing client is moved to the new Diet Type logic a script will be run to identify and edit any conflicting Diet Types. The script will be forced to remove the least impactful Diet Type i.e. if a Menu Item is set to Suitable for Halal and Contains Pork then Halal will be removed to minimise the risk of a Menu Item that contains Pork being made available to a Muslim student.

Conflicting Legacy Diet Types:

  • Suitable for Halal + Contains Pork
  • Suitable for Vegetarian + Contains Pork and, or Contains Beef
