Reports

The Reports resource provides read-only analytics aggregations over your tenant’s data, fourteen report types in all. Every endpoint requires the reports.read scope.

There are two shapes of report endpoint:

The two originals: /reports/summary and /reports/revenue/daily, take start/end (YYYY-MM-DD) and return their own dedicated response shapes.
The twelve passthrough reports (sales-summary, transaction-log, tax, margins, ar-aging, eod, store-credit, discounts, inventory-valuation, sales-by-customer, sales-by-item, turnaround) return the uniform report envelope. Windowed reports take from/to; eod takes a single day; as-of snapshot reports reject date windows. Check the report catalog for each endpoint. These are the same reports the in-app Reports tab renders, with data supplied by the app’s report engine.

Money fields follow the money object convention (amount_cents, amount, currency).

List available report types

GET /api/v1/reports

The live index lists all fourteen report types with their exact required and optional parameters, use it for discovery rather than hardcoding.

The report envelope

The twelve passthrough reports all return the same stable wrapper:

{
  "object": "report",
  "report": "sales-summary",
  "window": { "from": "2026-06-01", "to": "2026-06-30" },
  "data": { "...": "the report's own JSON shape, unchanged from the in-app report engine" }
}

Field	Type	Description
`object`	string	Always `"report"`
`report`	string	Report name, e.g. `"sales-summary"`
`window`	object	The normalized date window, `{ "from": null, "to": null }` for as-of snapshot reports
`data`	object	The report payload. The shape varies per report and is single-sourced from the in-app report engine

Report catalog

Report	Path	What it returns	Window	`location_id`
`sales-summary`	`GET /api/v1/reports/sales-summary`	Net revenue, COGS, refunds, gross profit, and margin for a date window	`from` + `to`	yes
`transaction-log`	`GET /api/v1/reports/transaction-log`	Every payment, refund, and cash-drawer adjustment in a date window	`from` + `to`	yes
`tax`	`GET /api/v1/reports/tax`	Tax collected by jurisdiction for a date window (cash basis)	`from` + `to`	yes
`margins`	`GET /api/v1/reports/margins`	Profitability / cost-of-goods analysis for a date window	`from` + `to`	yes
`ar-aging`	`GET /api/v1/reports/ar-aging`	Outstanding receivables bucketed by age	as-of snapshot	yes
`eod`	`GET /api/v1/reports/eod`	End-of-day (Z) report for a single day: payments by method, register sessions, cash drawer	`from` (single day)	yes
`store-credit`	`GET /api/v1/reports/store-credit`	Outstanding store-credit liability by customer	as-of snapshot	no
`discounts`	`GET /api/v1/reports/discounts`	Discounts given in a date window, by tech and by day	`from` + `to`	no
`inventory-valuation`	`GET /api/v1/reports/inventory-valuation`	On-hand inventory quantity and value	as-of snapshot	yes
`sales-by-customer`	`GET /api/v1/reports/sales-by-customer`	Top customers by paid revenue for a date window	`from` + `to`	no
`sales-by-item`	`GET /api/v1/reports/sales-by-item`	Top line items by paid revenue for a date window	`from` + `to`	no
`turnaround`	`GET /api/v1/reports/turnaround`	Ticket turnaround times: distribution, WIP aging, and medians for a date window	`from` + `to`	no

Passthrough query parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
`from`	string	Window start, ISO date (`YYYY-MM-DD`) or epoch milliseconds. Required for windowed reports; for `eod` it names the single day
`to`	string	Window end (inclusive), ISO date (`YYYY-MM-DD`) or epoch milliseconds. Required for windowed reports; for `eod` it is optional and must resolve to the same day as `from`
`location_id`	integer	Filter to a single location, only on reports marked “yes” above

Parameter rules are strict rather than silently ignored: as-of snapshot reports reject from/to (400 invalid_query), and passing location_id to a report that doesn’t support it is also a 400 invalid_query, no placebo filters.

Example: sales summary

curl "https://app.benchkey.com/api/v1/reports/sales-summary?from=2026-06-01&to=2026-06-30" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer bk_live_<tenantId>_<secret>"

const params = new URLSearchParams({ from: "2026-06-01", to: "2026-06-30" });
const res = await fetch(
  `https://app.benchkey.com/api/v1/reports/sales-summary?${params}`,
  { headers: { Authorization: "Bearer bk_live_<tenantId>_<secret>" } }
);
const { report, window, data } = await res.json();

Passthrough errors

HTTP	Code	Description
400	`invalid_query`	Missing/malformed `from`/`to`, `from` after `to`, a window supplied to an as-of snapshot report, `eod` given two different days, or `location_id` on a report that doesn’t support it
400	`invalid_param`	`location_id` is not a positive integer
402	`payment_required`	The tenant’s plan does not include advanced reports
404	`not_found`	`location_id` does not match any location

Get daily revenue

GET /api/v1/reports/revenue/daily

Returns a day-by-day revenue series for a date window. Read revenue_basis before interpreting the amounts: net_of_refunds uses the settlement projection, while gross identifies the legacy invoice-based calculation. Settlement activity is dated by money events, including refunds on their own dates. A refund-only day can therefore have negative revenue. Days without qualifying activity are omitted.

}

`data` entry fields

Field	Type	Description
`date`	string	Calendar date (`YYYY-MM-DD`)
`revenue`	money	Revenue for that day on the returned `revenue_basis`; settlement refunds subtract from it
`tax_collected`	money	Tax for that day’s qualifying activity, including refund adjustments on the settlement basis
`invoice_count`	integer	Distinct invoices with qualifying money activity that day on the settlement basis; a deposit without an invoice counts its estimate or ticket target once. The legacy gross basis counts paid or refunded invoices

The top-level revenue_basis is net_of_refunds or gross. On the settlement basis, deposits without an invoice can contribute revenue, and the same invoice can count on both its payment day and a later refund day. Qualifying payments and refunds that cancel each other out can leave a zero-total day in the series. Imported shops may use the same legacy presentation as the app’s Overview within the settlement projection.

Only the gross fallback dates invoice totals by paid_at, falling back to created_at; it does not subtract refunds. The separate analytics summary retains its documented gross revenue semantics.
