# Big Divisions

Big divisions are the larger categories that are used for reporting purposes. Big divisions must exist before smaller divisions are created, as they will regroup those smaller divisions.

#### Examples :

* Food
* Beverages
* Alcohol
* Modifiers

Since big divisions will later be sub-divided in divisions, it is important to keep them as generic as possible, as in the examples above. In a standard menu, it is rare to see more than 4 or 5 big divisions.
