Further Information
As long as the current Menus don't need further updates beyond pricing, (ingredients, working hours lead time the same, etc.) no more changes need to be made.
Keep the old Menus, as past orders have these old prices and are needed for accounting and Reports.
That's how to update pricing on menus.
