Currently, there are only three levels for inventory: Category, Item, and Modifier. It would be great if there were more inventory levels such as "Category", "Sub-Category", "Group", "Item", "Modifier", etc.. This would allow inventories to be more robust and organized.

Clover Inventory should look into adding Sub categories for items. Example Beef is category then sub category would be curated Beef. then items can be listed here

Agreed! I don't like having a ton of top level categories. Sub-Categories will give businesses with a large variety of inventory much cleaner look and will be easier to navigate.

Example: If you create a Category; Cocktails, then an Item; Menu Cocktails, then a Modifier; Cosmopolitan, we still need one more layer so we can choose the Vodka used; Toto's. We can then create a modifier in the Stock App that will deduct the portion of the bottle used so we can keep greater controls on the amount of product used.

Clover absolutely needs "smart" modifiers or the ability to modify a modifier in order to participate in the full service space.

This is much needed for restaurant operations in modifiers.

Merchant would like a sub- category.
Modifiers wouldn't work because he needs them to have a quantity volume

Agreed! I don't like having a ton of top level categories. Sub-Categories will give the Dining app a much cleaner look and will be easier to navigate. On the Flex, you potentially have to scroll through many categories (in our case, they do), just to get to the category you need. Sub-Categories will allow servers and bartenders to quickly navigate through the inventory in the Dining app.

Clover Menu Options needs to include SUB-MODIFIERS and SUB-CATEGORIES.

This will significantly reduce the number of clicks and/or scrolling required to place Orders. These features are being offered by Third Party Vendors that DO NOT offer 24/7 Live Support and often have Sync/Connectivity issues with Clover. These are features that should be included in our CLOVER DINING App for Full-Service and Fine Dining Restaurants and Bars.

SUB-MODIFIERS and SUB-CATEGORIES could be included as a Standard feature of Clover Dinning and/or as a Clover Dinning Upgrade Option, i.e. CLOVER DINNING PLUS Plan with a FREE 30, 60 or 90 Day TRIAL PERIOD.

Smart modifiers are a MUST if Clover is going to compete in the dining/bar market. There are plenty of systems that support this and Clover needs to figure it out fast. On top of smart/sub modifiers, they need to add buttons for "toppings" that are smart for "No", "Add", "Extra", etc. Setting up multiple tabs for each topping option is clunky and confusing.

Worst part is on the excel directions it says this is possible, but I have called and Clover has stated its not a feature. Might need more communication internally.

The majority of our menu items have 3+ modifiers as it is. My goal is to keep it as simple as possible to reduce error and confusion. The less tabs the staff has to sort though to place an order the better.

For example: (item) Spaghetti
(Modifier) Meat Choice
(Modifier) Sauce Choice
(modifier) Soup or Salad
(Modifier) Food Prep (this is loaded with SUB, ADD, NO type functions)

ITEM: Filet
(modifier) Cook Temp
(Modifier) Side Choice
(modifier) Soup or Salad
(modifier) Food Prep

Sub-Modifiers would not only be helping when selecting what kind of soup or salad (our customers choose from 2 different soups and 7 different dressings) but if the side is a Baked Potato to have a modifier of Sour Cream or Butter. or if the Side is Pasta a sub-modifier of types of pasta etc.

currently you can create a modifier group called soup and one called salad and attach that to an item (spaghetti), and place the respective options under those modifier groups. Have you tried doing that?

PLEASE! PLEASE! Add this!!! Every single merchant I have has asked for this!!!

Lack of sub-cats' is Clover's biggest limitation. Not just for restaurants, but for anyone trying to organise anything. We are moving away from Clover and this is one of the main reasons. Also lack of centralised database for creating new products and adjusting stock across multiple locations is killing us.

merchant called to have sub categories.

I was thinking that it would be great to have the ability to add sub-menus under a category. The way we have our system setup, we have a "Bar" category, under that we have "Import/Domestic Bottle Beer" as an item and within that we use modifiers to select the beer. That works, but it cannot track inventory. If the "Import/Domestic Bottle Beer" was a sub-menu, we could list the beers as items under that, keeping track of inventory and eliminating the modifiers.
