  1. We have multiple people who log into our clover because they need to change inventory and it would be nice to have an admin user but then have other log ons under the same dashboard so we could select what permissions they have or not have. Also it would help with having to get a code every 14 days being sent to a single person to then have to get to person requesting.

  2. I have around 100 categories that I need to reference sales reports on and it used to be that I could go to the drop down and uncheck "All Categories" and then select the one I needed. Removing that option now means that I have to uncheck a hundred categories to isolate the one. Please replace the ability to uncheck all!

  3. Currently, there is no way to bulk edit the items to automatically Track Stock. This is also not reflected on the Inventory load spreadsheet, so the only way to set items to be tracked automatically is to open each and every item and set this option - this is unwieldy for retail establishments with over 10,000 items. Currently, Quantity can be set via the loading spreadsheet but not the ability to automically track stock.

  4. When selecting a Revenue Class while creating or editing an item in Inventory, the dropdown list displays Revenue Classes in the order they were created, rather than alphabetically. This becomes cumbersome for merchants with a large number of Revenue Classes, requiring excessive scrolling to locate the correct one.

    Please consider adding:

    • The ability to sort Revenue Classes alphabetically in the dropdown or
    • A search bar within the dropdown to quickly locate the desired Revenue Class

    This small change would significantly improve efficiency when managing inventory.

  5. Before a new feature is added in a Clover Update, please make a help document for the website.

    This well help merchants learn the function, turn it on/off, etc.

    Pretty straightforward lol.

    Thank you for hardwork you do, and this would be a QOL self-help resource.

  6. The Clover Dev team needs to add an EMAIL option for payments on the payment screen where (OTHER) payment options are located. If the Client or Phone Order does not wand to provide the CC information over the phone they can pay on the invoice sent directly from the Clover Duo POS System

    This will eliminate the option of using a secondary device to send out an invoice via EMAIL.

    At this moment you have to create an invoice via CLOVER GO or through the Clover online Dashboard.

  7. Merchant would like to be able to see an audit trail of when an item was added to inventory, any changes made to that item (quantities, price, etc.), when items were sold and, most importantly, when an item was deleted from inventory. It would be fine if this functionality was a requested report. Merchant has multiple users with access to inventory and if one user accidentally deletes inventory there is no audit trail to see when that was done and by whom. We thought Clover might have a back end audit trail for deleted inventory items and we were told…

  8. I am inquiring about the absence of inventory cost and total value display within the Point of Sale system. As a long-standing client since 2016, I am surprised this functionality has not yet been implemented.

    My search within the app market for a suitable solution for retail inventory management has been unsuccessful, as most available applications cater to the restaurant and bar sectors.

    I urge you to address this deficiency, as accurate inventory tracking is crucial for my business operations. Implementing this feature would significantly enhance efficiency and streamline my business processes, thereby mitigating the need to consider alternative POS…

    1. Display the total quantity of items being purchased.
    2. Provide a high volume alert or beep different sound when a barcode fails to scan. 3.Automatically separate EBT/FOOD STAMP eligible items from non-eligible items before the customer completes the purchase.

    These enhancements would improve checkout efficiency, reduce cashier errors, and create a better customer experience

  10. I need to create an invoice feature that, when there are multiple same items shows the price of each product on the invoice instead of only showing the total quantity and total price without any breakdown. Every time customers receive the invoice, they don’t know how much each product costs and have to ask again to confirm.

  11. Because many fields are not required when the data is entered, my convenience store staff have entered hundreds of items through the years with no category, no revenue code, no cost. Just a name, price and barcode. It is beyond painful to give hours of my life to export item sales... dig through it to find those records that are wrong. Then fix them.

    On the item list screen. Each filter option should offer blank, empty, or zero records. Heck, if you could sort the blank ones to the top. Imagine if a user could filter for all items with…

  12. Data entry should be fast and easy - keyboard only. Tab, enter data, and tab again until finished. NO SCROLLING! User should NEVER have to scroll 37 miles down the page to read what could easily fit on one page.

    Change the control property on each section to "can grow/shrink" instead of being hard formatted a particular size.

  13. When adding inventory - allow the admin to require some fields to be populated.

    I.e. - cost, category, revenue code. Basically any field should be required or NOT at the merchant's choice.

    This would force the user to enter data according to the requirements of the merchant and reduce or eliminate painful clean up tasks.

  14. Currently, there is no option to add a description or terms to an ongoing reward. It would be very helpful to have the ability to include reward rules and restrictions directly within the reward details.

    For example, I would like to specify that rewards cannot be combined with other promotions and that clients must choose either the promotional offer or their rewards. I would also like to state that rewards expire one year after they are earned.

    Having a description field would help clearly communicate these terms to clients, reduce the need for manual explanations, and minimize misunderstandings or misuse…

  17. Please, please, please fix your inventory export report to be useful to retail businesses. At this time, you only have the ability to export ALL items and the report comes out with latest items added. Plus, the headers are not even accurate and you can't quickly re-sort it because you have taken the Revenue/Category off every item and grouped them by variant. Retailers need to be able to pull an accurate report of IN STOCK by category/revenue stream at any given point. The only way to do this right now is sorting by items and printing a PDF that is…

  18. Clover, please listen to us and not just mark not at this time. The retail inventory management view and reporting is horrible. Retail businesses run themselves on what is in the store and remaining not just what has been sold. The fact that you have that information for item sales so easy to view and export it should be the same for the in stock inventory. Having to print the item view that is so completely insane to view on a PDF is not right. Please don't just say not at this time, listen to us and consider that in…

  19. Inventory Refunds/Returns need to be able to automatically add the item back into inventory. Ideally, this would be configurable at the Item level to indicate if the item is to added back to inventory upon a refund.
