  1. Looking to see if Clover can create a profitability report by table for restaurants. This way, I can see which tables are less profitable than others.

  2. We have a few locations that would love to be able to filter the Tips app by date.

    We have a bar that checks all tips entered the prior night for accuracy before they manually settle the batch. This helps prevent calls from customers due to tip entry errors. They would love to only see the tips from a specific date or yesterday.

    Thanks!

  4. I need to have a report that shows the exact time each item is entered, even if it’s going to the same table. Clover has a “line item” feature, but if I add 3 margaritas at different times, it only shows the time of the first margarita.

  5. Tips received per credit cards and debit cards:

    In Ontario, we can deduct the credit card processing fees from the tip payments.
    We desperately need the details on the closeout report - Tips received per credit Card(MC, Visa, etc.) and debit card.
    The lack of this information cost us $400 per month in processing fees that we cannot recover and do not receive income.

  6. Under Transaction, an option is available to export Payments but the pre-configured report generated does not allow for user configuration/modification changes to capture additional data fields for data that is captured on the customer receipt.

    Additional fields required Item, Price, Categories, Modifiers.

    It seems a custom report is required but Clover Support can only suggest submitting request via User Voice instead of creating a support ticket. This should be an easy ask.

  7. Hi,
    We own a franchise business and have realized that the Clover POS system is not very franchise-friendly. For example, the reporting feature could be improved. It would be great if the POS had a function that automatically calculates cash deposits. I know there is a cash deposit category, but it’s not sufficient for our needs. Additionally, when updating the menu, I have more than 30 accounts under my master account. While we can switch between accounts easily, it would be much more convenient if we could update the menu across all accounts at once, as we manage the franchise…

  8. When running Sales Overview reports there needs to be a way to choose multiple employees at once to export, so they are in one file and separated into different tabs. Currently I have to run individual reports for each employee then combine them into one Excel spreadsheet so they're on their own tabs.

  9. Submitting a request for the Card Type to be put back on the Employee Overview report within the Reporting App on the device. This is an issue for restaurants!

  11. Prior to last week, I could go to "Closeout" and print batch reports. The Closeout screen also gave options for printing Card Type Totals and Server Totals. As of last week, all of the print buttons automatically print all of the reports. I called customer service and found out that this is a result of a recent update. Updates should be improvements. Updates should not decrease my options.

  14. Add options to print reports based on different variables
    - Start and end time (multiple reports per day, option to reopen drawer)
    - Order types
    - Employees

    Add options to tip pool based on percentage of overall sales or selected revenue classes. Add option to enter specified percentage and log the data to be sent to payroll with timeclock hours.

  15. Please add back sales broken down by Card Type on the condensed report. It used to be there about a year ago. Our managers could quickly and efficiently consolidate all card types with our POS. Now it's extremely difficult to do so. I'm not sure why you would change that. Please bring it back asap.

  16. Kiosk should have the option to print out reports.
    Merchants that only use a Kiosk to process need to print out reports and it makes easier if they can get it from the device.
    Some merchants don't know how login to the dashboard and navigate to export/print reports of the dashboard.

  17. Currently, when digital staff/merchant tips are sent over from third-party online ordering integrations (such as DoorDash via the CREATEPAYMENTRECORD API), Clover’s reporting system does not have a dedicated category to map them to. Because there is no native breakout for online staff tips, the system temporarily places them under the "Cash Deposits" section as a negative/deduction value and attributes them to "No Device".

    This behavior is causing massive confusion for merchants during financial reconciliation, as online digital tips appear to be incorrectly impacting and deducting from their physical net cash balances.

    Requested Enhancement:
    We need a dedicated, separate…

  19. I would like to suggest an improvement to how Sub Categories are handled in reporting.

    Right now, it appears that Sub Categories are being reported as if they are completely separate Categories, rather than being grouped under their parent Category. This makes reporting more fragmented and less useful for businesses trying to track department-level sales.

    For example:

    Category: Bakery
    Sub Categories:

    Bread
    Pastries
    Cakes

    Currently, reports treat Bread, Pastries, and Cakes almost like separate Categories instead of rolling them up under Bakery. I believe Sub Categories should function more like organizational breakdowns within a Category, similar to how Modifiers report…

  20. With larger parties where an auto added , say 20% tip is added to the bill... Needs to be an option to add that under "TIPS" .

    Currently, the ONLY way to add an auto tip % to large parties bill is by adding it to taxes and fees ...
    BUT it is NOT a "tax" NOR a "fee"

    AND - Doing it as Clover only allows via taxes and fees...

    Means the large table tip auto added "DOES NOT" show up under Employees "TIPS" in "TIP REPORTS" at the end of the day - Makes for missing entering tips…
