  1. It would be nice to be able to have a single merchant account and be able to run multiple inventories.

    Example: Parks that have field day events.

    They'll have a device in their gift shop. A device in the ice-cream shop, a device at the ticket booth, and then a floater device.

    It would be nice for them to be able to take the floater device to whichever location is busy and only run through that inventory.

    Currently, you have to run separate MIDs and have to have an extra device for each MID.

  2. When you are entering a new item and add the price, category, costs and inventory numbers the Revenue drop down does not save when you hit save. You have to go back into the item and redo it and hit save again and it will then work. That is so time consuming and would be great to get fixed!

  3. I would like a way to price items including tax. My example is I charge $4.50 for an item "including tax". Our sales tax is 6%. If I set the price for 4.24 w/.25 tax, it comes to 4.49. If I set price for 4.25 w/.26, tax it comes to 4.51. Is there a way to do that or possibly in the future? Thanks!

  4. please reinstate the ability to edit an item or group of similar items with out requiring to re-search each time you save. new update changed this, before item would stay available to updates on similar items. new update resets the inventory field when saved and requires you to search for similar items again

  6. most of my menu items have 3 sizes/prices. To save room, I have the item listed, and clicking the item reveals the sizes and prices. This is fine. My issue, is that the item itself shows a price of $0.00. That's confusing and embarrassing. I suggest that if a price is set to $0.00, the price should not show at all. I have several items, so to save space and lots of customer scrolling to find their items they want, this system works best for our online menu. i don't want to have to triple the size of my online…

  7. I have only one device. For years, I could simply tap on a “description” of the service I was charging for. It automatically generated the category and the price. The feature was free. When I heard that I would no longer be “grandfathered” in at that free level, I was informed that I could still have the feature if I upgraded to “essentials”. Truthfully the increase to $14.95/month or approx $180/year is not worth the feature. Because I can certainly “spell out” the service in text as an option. Although no big deal, it was great to have my menu…

  8. 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.

  10. Customer needs to reset inventory to zero due to duplicates and triples of items and start with a clean blank inventory/ items. No items in the Clover whatsoever. Currently, Clover makes you bulk edit at 200 items at a time. With over 18000 items this takes over an hour to click and click and click to erase back to zero.

    For example, the 3 lines where its export/ import/ print/ item settings to have a reset inventory items to zero. Make the merchant require a 2 factor authentication to actually reset the inventory to zero items to eliminate a chance…

  13. It would be helpful to have the option to move entries between the Item and Category sections. For example, if you accidentally create a large number of categories under the Item section, you currently have to delete them and start over. Instead, there should be a way to transfer them directly into the Category section. Likewise, if you mistakenly add an item into the Category section, you should be able to move it back into the Item section without having to redo everything.

  16. The bulk edit cost used to exist, and this new version of Clover has removed it. It adds HOURS to our inventory. We are able to edit everything else we need in bulk - price, SKU, product, and more, but we have to click in to each individual item to edit the cost, and it is incredibly time consuming and frustrating.

  17. We do not have the ability to turn a normal product into a variant item. This makes things difficult with having to delete and then recreate the item. It would also be great to be able to merge items into one variant item. For example, if I have 15 separate items, I would love to be able to merge them all into one larger item with variants.

    We personally have a product with 75 colors that were all entered as their own product. There is no way to merge them or even just convert one into a variant item. We…

  18. How about adding a negative variable for certain items. Such as Lotto Winners and Scratcher Winners. We don't want to have to use a Pay Out app when someone brings in a winner. It would need to be a non-revenue item. Most people play again, so why so many steps? I want to be able to hit Lotto Winner as a negative, then a Lotto (same with scratchers) and be done with it. Some have change coming back or some pay more.

  20. I have three locations. If I enter a new item to my menu, I have to enter it three times. Much like the Menu addition to the item, or the Show on POS & Available sliders. Please make a slider on/off type switch that I can add the item to one, two, or all three locations on the initial entry of the new item.
