  1. Can we make it an option to remove or keep the "Whole Table" on the Kitchen Ticket, please?

    I can understand why some restaurants need it, but at the restaurant where I work, we do not want it printed.

    Thank you very much.

  2. 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…

  4. The chef has a better understanding of which food items are available during the day. Can we please add functionality that would allow the kitchen to 86 an item from the KDS rather than going to a station/flex/mini.

  6. When a server fires their order, rather than the computer closing the table out, but leaving the server logged in and on the dining room floor plan screen, we should be able to turn on a function that logs the server out entirely. When you have 8-10 servers running around and someone forgets to log out, it's easy for someone else to start ringing their order under another person's name. Servers often forget to lock the computer when they're done, so this issue is fairly common.

  7. Merchant would like to be able to change the order type in the Clover dining app. Currently, it only allows the change in the Register app. This can make the order printing process confusing as it shows both the section and order type on the order receipt.

  8. Merchant is requesting table numbers and section name on the "orders' in the ios app, when selecting the button "Orders" it doesn't show, whether its paid or open the description of clover dining isn't synced. The order ID is not useful for them they would rather have the table number and section.

  9. When taking a tableside order on Clover Flex, servers can see the running total and item count, but cannot see the actual line items already entered while continuing to browse and add menu items.

    To review the order, the server must tap the dollar amount to open Order Summary, then return to the menu-entry screen to continue ordering.

    This becomes a significant operational issue in busy full-service restaurants, bars, and shared-plate concepts where a table may order many items and multiple rounds.

    For example, if a table orders multiple entrees, appetizers, drinks, and other items, seeing only “15 items” and…

  10. Clover dining should have the option to re-open tables after they've been closed. When a server closes a bill with the wrong payment type, the process is issuing a refund (using a supervisor/admin code), and re-entering the table's order then closing it under the correct payment type. This causes a lot of issues on the back end/reporting side of things. If the supervisor is taking tables or sales that day, it affects their cash owing/net sales after approving the refund. Along with the server in question having an inaccurate read at the end of the shift, due to the refund…

  13. My old POS and other POS on market has a feature where it highlights(or a change in color) a table if the table's bill has been printed and given to guest. This helps to minimize waste of time and paper when restaurant is busy, so as to know that another server will not reprint the check. Please advise as this was and will be very useful.

  15. I have merchants who would like the ability to add another non-table section. This would be useful for bars/restaurants that have multiple bar seating areas and for separating out takeout orders. It would just help people organize non-table orders more effectively and currently it does not appear to be possible.

  17. Instead of guest being numbers such as guest 1 and guest 2. It would improve our service to our customers if we can add there name and customer information/ history especially for repeat groups and customers, even if they change it to color such as blue green and yellow it would server to better tend/ serve multiple guests at a table.

  18. there needs to be the ability to move authorizations between tables to avoid having to void transactions if the payment is applied to the wrong table. The window where the void is sent and the funds are released causes issues in fast paced restaurants.

  19. users should be able to correct items on a paid order. example, if an order is paid and the server/cashier notices that they entered the wrong item that is a higher price, there is no way to correct that and give the customer back the difference if they are tip on paper. the message that appears if you try to refund an order, is that the order is still open and you cannot refund. Voids are not always feasible as there is a window where the funds are still held on the card.

  20. Print the amount due on split payments and partial authorizations on receipts. that way the servers do not have to remember the amount and notice on the screen that there is a balance due.
