  1. As you may know, Canada has abandoned pennies for all cash transactions.

    And pennies will be automatically rounded up for $.03 and more, and rounded down for $.02 or less.

    This has been universal among all POS systems and Banks in Canada, and I hope Clover can adapt to this quickly, otherwise it's going to cause reconciliation issues

  5. ​Several POS companies including xxxx can require the wait staff employee to declare tips in order to open the option of clocking out. The business justification for this feature is that the IRS requires that wait staff employee tips must be declared at some point anyway, as part of the payroll process, by the employer. This shifts that responsibility to the wait staff employee so the employer/manager/accountant does not have to spend literally hours sifting through each individual's hours and sales to determine tips to declare for each shift. The employee needs to input that data easily at the end…

  6. I have multiple restaurants set up with clover dinning. The scenario I am about to describe is an issue across the board. Clover help center and tech support have not been able to properly address this issue. Here are the steps included to lead up to the problem.

    1. Server is closing out an open order to $100.00 cash.
    2. For whatever reason a refund is needed.
    3. Manager on duty is called over to access refunds to apply to the open order.(Obviously we don't want servers doing refunds).
    4. The cash is refunded to the manager while still showing going out of the…

  7. What is printed on the bill receipt is now determined by the setup parameters of the payment receipt. It would be useful to have a separate bill receipt-only parameters setup.
    Right now heather and further notes are printed the same in bill and payment receipt. It would be more versatile if that can be set up separately for bill receipt and payment receipt as merchants would like to communicate different messages on each. Example: footnote on bill receipt: The suggested tip is 15% , Footnote on payment receipt: Thank you for dining with us.

  10. . For several of our bar items, we target a price including tax. For example, a can of beer is $3 including sales tax. This makes change-making easier.

    Clover allows only 2 decimal places in the product price field. The sales tax rate field offers 7 decimal places. So to make my pricing work at quantities up to 100, I had to enter several different sales tax rates, to accommodate rounding at different target prices. While this solves my price problem, it creates a sales tax problem, as now my tax rate of collected sales tax will not equal the…

  12. Support exchanges involving items with differing costs. For example, a customer returns a shirt and buys a cheaper shirt, while receiving the price difference including tax between the two items.

    Retail merchants frequently complain that Clover is too slow during the exchange process, requiring separate transactions to return merchandise and then sell new merchandise. This is a basic feature of most retail POS systems.

  14. We have a diner and use clover. Most guests check out on the way out at the host station, and they tip on the terminal.
    Sometimes guests want to pay with credit card at the table but when we drop the printed credit card authorization slip we have to draw in the tip line because Clover makes you choose only one option to tip either on the terminal OR on the printed receipt. It would be great to be able to have both options. Thanks!

  16. VERY BIG CHANGE: We'd like to get the option back to text receipts to customers for online transactions (using Virtual Terminal). We are a doctor's office working remotely and adding our patients to your system as 'New Customers' to save their data would be a violation of HIPAA laws. It is too inconvenient to start asking customers to spell out their email address every time we have an encounter with them; before we were able to just use their phone number to send a receipt. Please add this back as a 3rd option for receipts: 1) Email, 2) Text or…

  17. Under reporting (using Clover Flex terminal), would like to see an option to eliminate or hide server & employee totals on the nightly close out batch totals. Not required with our business sector - waste of paper!

  19. ability to be able to edit a guest after one guest at table has already paid. for example: 4 "guests" at table. guest 1 pays their ticket. guest 2 comes to pay but wants to add a round of beverages to their ticket before paying. this does not allow you to. another example: guest 1 pays their ticket, but guest 2 wants to pay for the drinks on guest 3. you can't change this after one guest has paid.

  20. need to have option to have tax included. this is important for bars! even after doing the correct calculations to have for instance a beer come out to be $4 flat the system automatically rounds up sometimes to the penny this is very annoying to the employees and customers.
