Update tills in bulk
Update up to 50 tills in a single request. Each row is validated and persisted independently — a failure in one item does not block the others. The response reflects the outcome of each item individually, and the HTTP status reflects the overall result: 200 if all items succeeded, 207 if some failed, or 400 if all failed.
Each row identifies the till to update using identifierName and identifierValue. All other fields are optional and use patch semantics: fields absent from the request JSON are left unchanged. Null and patch semantics vary per field — see the body parameters table for the exact behavior of each field.
Example request
curl -X PUT "https://{host}/v2/locations/tills" \
-H "Authorization: Basic {base64-encoded-credentials}" \

Body parameters
Pass a JSON array of till update objects. Maximum 50 items per request.
Note: The Updatable column indicates whether the field can be changed after creation.
identifierNameandidentifierValueidentify the target till and are never updated themselves.
| Field | Type | Required | Description | Updatable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
identifierName | string | Required | How the target till is identified. Must be one of: ID (internal system ID), CODE (till code), EXTERNAL_ID (external identifier value). Case-insensitive. | No |
identifierValue | string | Required | The identifier value matching identifierName. | No |
name | string | Optional | Display name for the till. Cannot be set to null or empty. Max 100 characters. Accepts letters, digits, underscores, and spaces. | Yes |
description | string | Optional | Free-text description. Set to null to clear the stored value. | Yes |
isAdmin | boolean | Optional | Whether the till has admin access. | Yes |
isActive | boolean | Optional | Whether the till is active. Activation fails if the parent store is inactive. Deactivation fails if the till has active child entities. | Yes |
storeParentCode | string | Optional | Code of the parent store. Cannot be set to null. Provide a valid store code to change the parent store. | Yes |
externalIds | object | Optional | Key-value map of external identifiers ({"typeName": "value"}). Omit to preserve existing values. Pass null to clear all external identifiers. Pass {} to make no change. Set a key's value to null to remove that specific key. Maximum five entries. Keys and values must not exceed 200 characters each. | Yes |
customFields | object | Optional | Key-value map of custom field values. Omit to preserve existing values. Pass null to clear all custom field values. Pass {} to make no change. Set a key's value to null to remove that specific key. Keys must match custom fields configured for the org. | Yes |

}Response parameters
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
response | array | One entry per input item, in the same order as the request. |
.entityId | integer | System-assigned ID of the updated till. Present when the till was identified, regardless of whether the update succeeded. Absent when the till could not be identified, or when an unexpected error occurs. |
.result | object | Object containing the fields submitted for this till, echoed from the request. Present for all items regardless of success or failure. |
.errors | array | Errors for this item. Empty when the item succeeded. |
..code | integer | Numeric error code. |
..message | string | Error message. |
..status | boolean | Status flag for the error entry. |
.warnings | array | Non-fatal warnings for this item. The till update may still succeed even when warnings are present. |
..code | integer | Numeric warning code. |
..message | string | Warning message. |
..status | boolean | Status flag for the warning entry. |
totalCount | integer | Total number of items in the request. |
failureCount | integer | Number of items that failed to update. |
Error & warning codes
| Code | Error number | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
BULK_REQUEST_LIMIT_EXCEEDED | 1246 | Error | The request contains more than 50 items. Maximum allowed is 50. HTTP 400. |
