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
