## Menu structure
> ℹ️ **Each provider can have only one active menu.**
Bolt Food menu has the following components:
- **Category** - Consists of one or more dishes (assigned in children_ids). E.g. Breakfast, Burgers, Lunch etc.
- **Dish** - Item inside a category. It may have none to many option groups assigned (children_ids)
- **Option group** - Group which can be assigned one to many dishes. E.g. "Selecti your pasta type", "Add extras to your pizza"
- **Option** - options inside option groups. E.g. "Short pasta", "Extra cheese"
- **Tags** - predefined list of tags to mark item e.g. as packaging_fee, vegeterian etc.
- **Fees** - Item defining a fee, such as bottle deposits, SUP directive fees, which can be assigned to other items of type Dish or Option.
- **(Deprecated - please do not use) Tag multipliers** - Array used in order to denote how many tag instances are attached to a single item. Example: [{tag: “sup_cup”, multiplier: 3}, {tag: “sup_container”, multiplier: 2}]. Currently only used for SUP directive business tags.

## Item availability
Each menu push [(/pushMenu)](#tag/Menu-Integration/operation/post-pushMenu) will overwrite previous menu and item availabilities, meaning all unavailable items should be sent to [/updateMenuItemAvailability](#tag/Menu-Integration/operation/post-updateMenuItemAvailability) after every menu push with one request (all unavailable items combined into one request). Afterwards dishes and/or options can be updated with [/updateMenuItemAvailability](#tag/Menu-Integration/operation/post-updateMenuItemAvailability).
## Fees
Menu items of type "fee" are used to define the applicable fees for items in the menu being pushed, as defined by various container-deposit legislations across markets. The price of a fee is applied on top of the base price of the menu item for which the fee is assigned. For example if a menu item is priced at 10 EUR, and has a fee assigned, with the price of the fee item being 0.5 EUR, then the total price amount of the item will be 10.5 EUR. The extra price from the attached fee is reflected accordingly in the Bolt Food application. By default, for the currently supported fees, the fee price is not included in the merchant's commission computation, the applied VAT rate for the fee price is 0 and the fee price is not included in any discount computation. Currently the following fee types are supported:
| Fee type | Description |
| ------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| deposit | Should be used for bottle deposits.

## Business tags and reserved SKUs
There are 2 types of tags:
- business tags - tags that trigger a certain logic and may result in side effects
- display tags - used only to display some information to the user (e.g. spicy)
The usage of some business tags may result in side effects regarding the structure of an order, like adding a new item, which may have a reserved SKU.
