  2. It would be great if we could use the app on a mobile device to scan barcodes for inventory entry.

  3. This seems like it should be a very basic feature, but it is super frustrating to not have the capability to enter item quantities of over 99. If I had known this wasn't possible I would not have purchased Clover. However I did not think about it not being available because it is ridiculous. I have had to redo my entire inventory as bulk items and has increased the complexity of orders and really slowed down efficiency and accuracy of staff. I've called multiple times and no staff person at Clover can seem to even answer why the quantities are…

  4. We cannot currently reset SMS on an employee account or update the email address. When a new account is created with new information, the records are not connected.

    Request to be able to combine employee profiles. If discrepancies exist, choose which account to use the information from.

  5. Currently for Online stores for retail, there are no shipping or mailing options, there are only instore pickup and door dash delivery. This is limiting merchants from gaining shoppers because you CAN NOT turn both functions off. One must remain on or the website is turned off.

    There is not enough allowed characters for customers to put contact information.

    Categories do not have the ability to add descriptions.

    A lot of work needs to go into improving the online store especially with regard to shipping.

  6. Your marketing dept took the awards program away from me without warning. They say it is because my business code is retail cigars. Clover should not be the social police. A liquor store across the street from me has clover rewards and sales cigars! In fact if you search for cigars on the clover mobile app, many cigar retailers still show up. But no longer me. It is not fair to take away a great program because someone in Clover marketing does not like tobacco. Stick to making great POS systems and but out of social engineering. Allowing some cigars…

  7. Inventory Reporting is pretty non-existent. I would love to have a report in Clover that shows the current value of your inventory. I have to export it to excel each day and then manually multiply my Quantity on Hand by my Cost and then sum the results. Also when it exports to excel, there is no category so you can't get any reports by category. This is important to most retailers.

  8. It would be very helpful and save time if we could attach discounts to categories, so that when we ring up customers, the different categories, that have different sale prices will just automatically be applied instead of having to click on each item and apply a discount. Which is time-consuming.

  9. Hello Clover Product & Development Team,

    I am writing to formally revisit a feature request I submitted earlier this year regarding inventory reporting. At the time, I was advised that this functionality was “not available,” but I want to clearly express how critical this gap is for retail businesses and why it deserves serious reconsideration moving into 2026.

    As a brick-and-mortar retail store owner, I rely on my POS system not just to process sales, but to make informed business decisions. Currently, Clover does not provide a clear way to view:

    The date an item was entered into inventory

    The…

  10. While doing an itemized invoice on the Dashboard, I am unable to enter any amount greater than 100 for items that are saved as "Per Unit". For example, I want to sell 1200 square feet of an item that is aleady saved as "Per Unit" and the "item unit" is set to "sf". I am able to do it on the Register.

  11. On the Item Sales Report, the SKU and Product Code are the same, taking from the SKU i think. The product code is not accurately showing. This needs to be fixed.

  12. Are you able to add the date an item was entered (or last updated date) and the last time it was purchased? This is important because it will help monitor items that sale and items that don't sale. If the item doesn't sale then this could help identify what items should go on sale or be discounted. This could also shape the direction of the store and keep movement within the store. This can also help with all the trends that change on social media. This can also help see items that are doing well in the store.

    For example,…

  13. I can't believe you don't have reports on customers at all. Even my old out-dated POS had these reports. I need to see who my top-spending customers are, and it would also be helpful to see what they are purchasing. There is no information on any of this. We are supposed to be reaching out to our customers but we cannot even see who spends the most and what they are buying. This is ridiculous, should be a part of basic reporting!

  14. We have multiple customers that are tax exempt and some that receive an automatic discount with each purchase. Other than putting it in as a NOTE in the customer information, there is no way to designate these as options for these customers and they are often forgotten. This seems like a very easy thing to do. We just need to be able to mark certain customers to automatically apply tax-exemption and/or a specific discount each time we enter a transaction. If it needs to be manually removed, that is much easier than remembering to manually add it EVERY time we…

  15. please provide a setting that automatic safeguards employees from accidentally stacking outside discounts to an order. For example we have a reward system that we use, and that system will periodically send out a $5 off coupon for their birthday. What I'm looking for is a way that clover can detect multiple outside discounts (birthday coupon, military, etc.) to the same ticket. As a SMALL BUSINESS, IT HURTS WHEN A CUSTOMER COMES IN AND TRIES TO STACK 2-3 DIFFERENT DISCOUNTS AND STILL WANT THE IN-STORE ADVERTISED SPECIAL WE HAVE GOING ON. I KNOW THE EASY ANSWER IS "TRAIN YOUR EMPLOYEES…

  17. The latest update no longer allows users to run single label item sales reports without manually unselecting every other label for every report. We have 73 labels and need to run individual reports for them every month, so deselecting 72 labels 73 times a month is just impossible-- particularly because the selection dropdown resets after every click. Please restore this option ASAP.

  18. Allow SKU assignment of certain discounts - discounts can ONLY be applied to items matching the SKUs allowed.

  20. We would like our reports to save automatically so we don't have to reset the filters every time. It'd be ideal if the Dashboard could display the filters we have already set so we do not have to recreate them every time
