What is Order?

An order is a confirmation of a transaction (a receipt), which can contain multiple line items, each represented by an Offer that has been accepted by the customer.

Example JSON-LD skeleton

Full parent hierarchy

Each chain starts at a root type. Multiple paths are shown when Schema.org defines more than one parent. For very complex types, up to 256 paths are displayed; consult the official definition for the full graph.

PropertyExpected value typesDescription
acceptedOfferOfferThe offer(s) -- e.g., product, quantity and price combinations -- included in the order.
additionalTypeText, URLAn additional type for the item, typically used for adding more specific types from external vocabularies in microdata syntax. This is a relationship between something and a class that the thing is in. Typically the value is a URI-identified RDF class, and in this case corresponds to the use of rdf:type in RDF. Text values can be used sparingly, for cases where useful information can be added without their being an appropriate schema to reference. In the case of text values, the class label should follow the schema.org <a href="https://schema.org/docs/styleguide.html">style guide</a>.
alternateNameTextAn alias for the item.
billingAddressPostalAddressThe billing address for the order.
brokerOrganization, PersonAn entity that arranges for an exchange between a buyer and a seller. In most cases a broker never acquires or releases ownership of a product or service involved in an exchange. If it is not clear whether an entity is a broker, seller, or buyer, the latter two terms are preferred.
confirmationNumberTextA number that confirms the given order or payment has been received.
customerOrganization, PersonParty placing the order or paying the invoice.
descriptionText, TextObjectA description of the item.
