When you’ve created the OpenMenu for your restaurant for the first time you have to submit the restaurant. A short review occurs and your OpenMenu will be made live. Also, when changes are made to your OpenMenu you’ll have to re-submit. This process ensures that you stay in control of when your restaurant is live and when changes to your menu is made live.
When you see the ‘submission required’ note next to your restaurant (reference image below) in the OpenMenu Creator you’ll need to submit it so the changes can be processed and your live OpenMenu is updated.

- Completed – Restaurant/menu has been added/updated in the OpenMenu Platform. Any additional changes to the menu will have to be resubmitted.
