  1. When a customer is returning or exchanging an item. There should be a way to just do that on the register screen without having to find the original order. We offer returns up to 90 days and after 30 they disappear from the history.

    We should be able to scan the item and choose a "return" option. Then they can purchase anything else they want or we can refund them how they would like.

  2. Our market frequently takes call-in orders that will be picked up on a future date. We need an option that will show all orders paid on a particular day, separate from all sales entered on a particular day.

    Also, we need a report for the processed credit card batch that shows the date, time, order number, and a list of the individual order totals, instead of just the total by card type that was processed.

  4. In the Search bar whether in Register or in Inventory, instead of just one keyword, multiple keywords can be used, and they don't have to be in order.

    For example, if you have an item called "dog food", you can find it by typing "food dog"

  5. "Revenue Class" is the primary driver of the Sales Overview report and it should be. The item attribute that populates "revenue class reports" and lists on Clover devices is "Labels." In other words when you create a new item, you choose the "revenue class" by clicking on the "labels" field. Please change the attribute name "Labels" to "revenue class." After that is corrected, make the "revenue class" field exportable. Right now "Lables"/"Revenue Classes" export as "printer labels" and when reimported, populates the "Printer Label" field. In your "Instructions and Glossary" tab of an Item List Export, you don't list "printer…

  6. A modifiers column and modifier prices are not available columns in the item list in the Clover dashboard. Merchants have to click onto the item which is a blue link to see the modifier and click the modifier to change the prices. For example, a plumbing retail store has 3 modifiers for 6000 items. Currently, the merchant can look at his 6000 items and see all 3 prices next to the same item along with margin % in correlation with the cost (which Clover does have the cost column currently which is a positive) Since Clover already has the cost…

  8. Please add item pricing type "Per unit" to the new Essentials plan. So it would be "Fixed" "Variable" and "Per Unit" Thank you. Merchants do not want to pay 89.95 a month just to sell per unit

  9. Please add the ability to export our item lists to a CSV file so it can properly be imported into other addons such as Ecwid. This will make updating and creating an online store easier and more organized.

  10. Would there be a way to edit all variants from a single product at the same time and not having to click into each different variant. It would be nice to be able to edit the cost, price, SKU, tax, quantity, etc all from the same screen. For example, we have products that have over 40 different variants. We have to now go into each one and change all of those items listed above for each different variant. Whereas, if it was all on one screen we would be able to do it all at once making adding and editing…

  11. Clover GO had an update that clearly segments inactive/closed Clover accounts so that a merchant only selects from their list of active accounts. We're requesting the same segmentation be available on the Dashboard so merchants do not have to rename old accounts ("old," "do not use," etc) and inevitably end up logging in to an inactive account, making updates, then get frustrated when they realize it was on the incorrect account.

  12. Modifiers pricing should have the options to be fixed or variable by percentage. All our catalog is customizable and the prices must vary depending on the quantity and the price of each variable. If a customer orders more (eg. business cards) the modifiers should increase the value by a percentage. Modifiers been fixed, at certain quantity break, make the cost of the items very low or very high. Creating a the same fixed modifier for every quantity would be a gigantic task.

  14. When performing a refund, the only option is to select payment form for the refund to return to. As a small nonprofit boutique, we'd like an option to select store credit so we can be guaranteed to keep the sale.

  15. Many of my Merchants have requested the ability to filter the Orders tab by a certain date much like the dashboard. I realize the Orders tab on the devices only allow data for the past 30 days but being able to select and show only Orders for "Today" or "Yesterday", Or "Last Week" would be very helpful just to quickly filter the orders that show up. For restaurants that deal with managing a large number of orders each day this filter would be extremely helpful. Much like the Order Status filter which filters the orders by "Open", "Paid" "Refunded", etc.…

  17. I give in store credit to certain customers, many of the orders are paid weeks after the original order was placed. Unfortunately, the payment is applied on the date it was originally taken and even if it was paid a month later. Affecting our Sales tax Reports creating inconsistencies. Please help us with this issue.

  18. We run into issues where no customer, or the incorrect customer is chosen when an order is placed and payment is made. We currently have to void the transaction and redo the order and payment in order to correct this. If we perform the refund days later, the reporting gets janky.

    We would like for admins to somehow have the ability to either add and edit/remove a customer on the back end after a payment has been made. This would allow us to fix these errors with ease, and give us greater control over customer history.

    Clover currently allows for…

  19. There needs to be an option for Layaway & House Accounts on Clover avoiding 3rd party apps. The 3rd party apps that clover has at the moment are not reliable. Many retail stores ask for this feature.
