We are using the payment endpoint for tip distribution, but are encountering the scenario where the team-member who is acting as cashier is not the same person as the server or owner of the order. The order object does not have a team-member attribute and the payment object only has the team-member attribute who collected the payment, so how can we determine who “owns” or opened the order?

At this time the ability to get the team member that opened the order isn’t available with our APIs. We’re constantly working to improve our features based on feedback like this, so I’ll be sure to share your request to the API product team.
