Providing revenue center information for an order

You can specify the revenue center associated with the order.

For example, restaurants might use revenue centers to report on order volume in specific locations of a restaurant, such as the patio, bar, or dining room. They might also use revenue centers for delivery services, to track the volume of orders from each service.

To specify the revenue center, in the Order object, provide a revenueCenter object that specifies the Toast platform GUID of the revenue center. For example:

"revenueCenter": {
    "guid": "908f0483-ac03-4c9a-a5a4-43c37786e237",
    "entityType": "RevenueCenter"
  },

To retrieve the GUIDs of the available revenue centers for a restaurant, send a GET request to the /revenueCenters endpoint of the configuration API.

You can also retrieve the revenue center that is associated with a table or service area.

  • When you send a GET request to the /tables endpoint of the configuration API, the response includes the revenue center for each table.

  • When you send a GET request to the /serviceAreas endpoint of the configuration API, the response includes the revenue center for each service area.

For more information, see the reference documentation for the configuration API.
