  2. Add feature to allow merchants to cancel an online order and notify the customer. They should also be able to cancel a specific item in an order and notify the customer. If a merchant runs out of an item or needs to cancel an order for some other reason, they need the option to cancel the order and for the customer to be notified so they do not come to the business expecting their order.

  3. MODIFIERS: ADD COSTS SO WE CAN GENERATE ACCURATE PROFIT REPORTS!!!

    As of now, we can only add a cost to an item. If someone wants to change a size, add an ingredient, etc that costs extra, we have no way for that to reflect on the cost of the item which makes the profit reports useless. I was told that the only work-around is to turn every single modifier into an item button, which would be incredibly tedious and will not work for a busy cafe.

  4. We recently added Scan to Pay at our location. The feature is receiving positive feedback from both staff and guests. However, the QR code only prints when printing a full table bill. No QR code prints when splitting the check. The QR code was a plus for me, as an owner, because we do a TON of large groups with split checks and this speeds up efficiency in check out: potentially reducing future labor costs.

    We have a work around for now, but it's clunky and time consuming. For any other full service restaurant owners facing this issue, we are

  6. THE CUSTOM MODIFIER SHOULD HAVE THE OPTION TO ADD PRICE, SAME AS A CUSTOMER ITEM.
    THEY'RE SPECIAL OCCASIONS WHEN CUSTOMERS ASK FOR SPECIFIC ORDERS THAT AREN'T SET MODS AND ITS EASIER TO RING UP THE ORDER WITH A CUSTOM MODIFIER WITH AN OPTION TO ADD PRICE.

  7. There is currently no way to quickly determine the restaurants (or individuals) sales break down for Food and Liquor. This information (liquor sales) would be useful for servers at the end of each shift to determine the amount they must tip out the bartenders. Additionally, this information would be extremely beneficial for the restaurant to determine sales of periods (daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, yearly). There has to be a better way to do this, than continuing it on our fingers or with scrap paper. Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

  8. Merchants need to be able to see the cash deposit totals by employee on their POS and not just via the dashboard. Currently, the POS shows cash deposit totals - but not by employee.

    The cash deposit totals by employee are visible in the dashboard and so this should be accessible via the POS as well.

    This is important for employees and their manager when checking cash deposits at the end of their shifts.

  9. Problem: Once created, discounts are only available or must be deleted AND they can be applied to both Order and Item level. They are also often disorganized.

    Solution: Make discounts available or unavailable (optional) so we don't have to delete them and allow them to be applicable for Orders or Items only, or both. This way employees cannot accidentally apply BOGO 50% OFF item only discount to an entire order.

    Also, please give us the ability to organize discounts alphabetically or as category/groups, also allowing to display in register separately or in categories -- perhaps we can add/delete custom categories…

  10. Partial payment order Management

    Ability to running an open tab/order/check after a partial payment is applied. In a bar environment it is common to have a party of guests running a single tab/order. Some guests leave and request to apply a partial payment. Others stay and continue to add items to the existing tab/order. This option is currently not possible in Clover, but available in most competitive pos products.

  14. just opened a new restaurant, but I don’t see the service charge pop up automatically when I hit “Pay.” This feature works correctly in my other three restaurants. I contacted Clover Support, and they told me that the new updates no longer include this feature. Please add this feature back.

  15. I have had many clients say they do not like the white background of the clover dinning and retail screens. They would also like to be able to change the color of the categories. so that the full box is a solid color, not just the side.

  16. Please move move the updating of inventory tracking from the time the bill is paid to when the item is fired to the kitchen. If a restaurant has 5 units and all 5 are fired to the kitchen but not paid for yet a 6th unit could be added to an order even though the item is no longer available to sell

  18. The dayparts for menu visibility on the Clover Station Duo, Clover Solo, Mini, etc. works great, however, the dayparts do not apply to the Kiosk, which seems like a weird oversight. We need the ability for the dayparts to also apply to the Kiosk menu visibility.

  19. We would like to be able to ask the customer for a name and use that as the ticket number. Instead of just calling out numbers when orders are ready, we would like to call out their name.

    The feature to add their name to the ticket currently just auto adds the name on the credit card and it's a little weird. Also we're not trying to take down all their information and add them to the system. We would just like a simple name on each order. Please and Thank you!

  20. This is more of a complaint/suggestion, not an idea. Our business has the gold plan - Restaurant plan, but we are not a restaurant, although we utilize a lot of the same Clover options included with this plan. We are a ******** bar/tasting room that also sells merchandise. Many times a customer will purchase an item, let's just say it's a shirt, and they come back the next day or next week because it's the wrong size. On the Restaurant plan, you cannot complete an Exchange, only a Refund. So we have to refund the guest's form of payment to…
