  1. A few things to make the dashboard easier to work with:

    1. Although columns in items is customizable, it doesn't save for next login or even if you navigate away from it and return in the same session.
    2. Infinite scroll on items instead of "show more" would be helpful.
    3. I often need to download items to a csv file, but I am only able to download the entire inventory. Being able to export items at the category level would be great.

  2. When adding product codes to individual items: the current programming has very broad matching criteria. If just 2 or 3 sequential numbers within a product code match, then when either item is scanned, you get a list of items at the POS to choose from. This leaves far too much room for error in ringing up the correct items. It defeats the whole point of having unique individual product codes.

    Here is an example. I have 1 item thats product code is 4325, I have another completely different item that has a product code 665570982325, 2 VERY different product codes.…

  3. On retail mostly, after items are selected from the cash register screen and pay is selected, an additional tender option should appear that reads "INVOICE". This will take you to the Virtual Terminal Invoice screen (transferring the payment amount) and allow the cashier to send a payment link (invoice) to the customer for the payment to be completed.

    Thanks

  4. Team, The new dashboard version removed adding inventory with decimal places. I buy and sell an item that is by weight and not in exact whole numbers. Please allow adding and removing inventory with decimal places.

  6. I am looking for a report that will provide the following in a single report by item:
    1. Item name
    2. item price next to it
    3. sales tax amount related to the item. If item is Non Taxable it should reflect zero tax next to it.
    There are not reports in in clover that shows this information. I just spent 3 hours on the phone, and went up to a supervisor level and the best that they could do is send me to this site to put a request, and maybe get a resolution in the future. Assuming it…

  7. Have an option in the inventory screen, when adding new items, to be able to print a barcode label from Easy Labels. This is essential when new items come in that don’t have barcodes on them. Also, be able to assign a barcode to an item that has no barcodes in the inventory screen.

  8. Being able to enter qty by fractions. For example, We sell Fabric by the yard but often people want it at 11/2 yards or 11/4 yards, ect. It would be great if inventory would track by fractions and also register would allow input of fractions when choosing qty. instead of only being able to chose whole numbers.

  9. It is my understanding that you can only add a picture/icon to an item/listing if you are selling online. PLEASE add this feature if you only sell in person/brick&mortar. It helps our associates know which item to choose to process at checkout by combining a visual representation as well as a description. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE ADD THIS!

  11. The import sheet should not have a separate tab for "category". There should be a category column on the "items" tab so you can easily track which category the item is going to. We have over 50 categories and trying to make sure that each item is where it belongs is near impossible.

  12. 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.

  13. When creating a report, it currently can only be compared to the same day last year or last week. It would be great to be able to compare to the same weekday or to a specific date and generate in one report. Currently, we have to pull two different reports and compare from there. In the tourism industry, sales on Jan 10 on a Tuesday vs Jan 10 on a Saturday are very different so it would help with report reading.

  14. Multiple item pictures. Clover Retail Growth Plan online shopping needs to have the ability to add multiple pictures to each item. Customers purchasing online need to be able to see all sides of the product as well as close-up pictures of product labels. Having the ability to only add one picture per item will hurt online sales.

  15. The new Retail Growth Plan has "Printer Labels" within the Inventory, and it is confusing for retailers that want to print barcode labels. Please update the plan to change the verbiage and/or to enable merchants to print barcodes/labels for retail.

  16. We have been using the Clover rewards program for almost a year now. If a customer has a certain amount of points, say 1000 or more, and they decide to redeem a part or all, there is no option to do that. The option that is presently available is that they can only redeem 50 points out of the total. Eventually, with this method, they will keep accumulating more points without being able to benefit from it. Hence, implementing a feature that allows the customer to redeem part or all of their points at their discretion would be practical and…

  17. When the accounting sync is turned on, QBO receives a daily journal entry with sales, sales tax, tips/gratuity and the offset is cash/credit card payments. Clover needs to add a line item for Merchant Fees. The total bank deposit does not tie to the accounting sync because the merchant fees are not included. The bank deposit for the day is total credit card payments received less merchant fees. It would be great to see the merchant fees synced with QBO.

  18. It would be great if the register interface had more options for how it displayed. I have a wine shop, and we do not need categories or items to the right side of where items show up in the register app. For us, it would be ideal to have just a simple and bigger interface to see customer orders as we scan them.

    It would also be fantastic if there was a way to add the total # of units in a customer order. We like to double check on larger orders that the # of wine bottles going into…

  19. A Small business owner stated that when a gift card is LOST and the owner of the gift card is given a paper receipt ... it would be helpful if the paper receipt had the complete number on it. Understandably, the store owner does not want to loose out on sale if the gift card had already been used.

  20. Please add the ability to associate a cost to a item modifier as that additional item has both a price and a cost from an accounting stand point. If I am adding an item (modifier) to the sale of an item, that cost needs to go up for things to be accurate and help track and improve margin numbers year to year.
