  1. 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…

  2. I would like to see adjustable columns on reports, the ability to add more columns in (such as current inventory in item sales reports). The ability to export to excel. We use item sales and inventory for our ordering but the last set of update has made this not useful using the web portal. We now have to go through our inventory item by item once or twice a week (with over 10k items), and hope we dont miss anything.

  3. 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…

  4. 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

  6. There are many existing filters for reports, except categories. For small businesses categories are important to differentiate sales and allow posting of entries to an accounting program. Adding a category filter to existing reports would be a simple fix and help immensely to ease our operations.

  10. The recent change to the POS Sales Overview Report has information on it that we do not need. The choice between full and condensed is insufficient. Full is too much and condensed is not enough. We do not do cash posting through Clover therefore do not require those features nor do we require the Sales by Employee. It would be great to be able to select the features needed on the report rather than the catch all. We are using far more thermal paper because of the recent change to the report.

  11. Would love it if when our batch printed at the end of the day, we were able to see the days total sales separate of the surcharges. Maybe list them both separately?

    Thank you for your feedback, this idea is currently under review. It should be possible to publish the surcharge total for a given closeout batch. We will want to avoid creating confusion in our batch report by publishing too many details.

  12. Merchant would like a way to designate the cash drawer being used if there are multiple cash drawers connected to one clover device. Also if the log in the cash log app could indicate this as well.

  13. I am considering changing my hours of operations; considering closing on Tuesdays at 5pm instead of 8pm. In order to see what sales were on Tuesdays nights vs Tuesday daily total for the past 3 or 6 months to determine if this would be a good idea, I would have to run 2 reports for each tuesday for 13 or 26 tuesdays this is 50+ reports. Each report has to have a start time, end time, report type, etc.
    Can I get the system to save report settings so that once I pick a report 5pm-8pm the next report I…

  14. When a merchant has multiple Clover Compacts, the need to close them individually is critical. We have a merchant that has 4 cashier windows and they have to have the ability to close and reconcile separately. The only Clover solution is the Clover Compact with another Compact acting as a PinPad through a security window. They also need to be able to run a totals report for that Compact. Cost is a factor as well.

  15. Subject: Request for Assistance with Clover Open Order Print Report

    Hi Dev Team,

    I’d like to bring to your attention an issue I encountered while trying to generate the Clover open order print report. Although the filter functionality is available, there is no option to select a printer either on the POS system or the online portal.

    Could you please address this issue at your earliest convenience? It is essential to enable this option for all Clover open order print views. We need the ability to print these reports to verify details such as:

    Who opened the order
    The purpose…

  17. As it stands, DAILY SALES figures are only accessible in REPORTING. Therefore, employees that balance registers have full access to company sales figures for the entire year and beyond. Access to yearly/monthly/weekly sales figures & sales reports should be limited to owners/senior management. Clover needs an END OF DAY icon. It should have a filter for ALL REGISTERS, REGISTER #1, REGISTER #2, etc without having the ability to see weekly, monthly, yearly figures. This needs to be addressed ASAP. Thank you for this forum to offer ideas.

  18. The Gift Card transactions have recently been added to the "Sales By Card Type" Report. That is not a problem. However, the gift card redemption total is also being added into the Closeout Total for the day. The gift card money was collected when the card was purchased - not used. It should not be added into the Closeout Total. The closeout total with the gift card amount then does not match the deposit amount. It's an extra hassle for a retailer with multiple gift cards being redeemed daily.

  20. We are in need of a way to look at the sales report for a specific item, company, and group of items. Maybe this could be easily resolved with a search function in reporting - showing past orders, stock quantity, and number sold. It would also be very beneficial for this information to have a time stamp, for we are a business that relies on seasonal items and sales.
