Decimal Quantities Beta is live!

[SQPhil]

We've heard your feedback and we are proud to announce that the beta for decimal quantities is now live for iOS! (Please note that this feature is not yet available on Android or for Invoices)

Decimal quantities enables you to sell exact quantities in the unit(s) of measure you use to conduct your business—ounces, pounds, yards, gallons, etc. By previewing decimal quantities on your Square Point of Sale, you will be able to:

• Create items to sell in decimal quantities
• Check out customers purchasing items in decimal quantities
• View decimal quantity items in your cart summary
• Review sales by item quantities
• Refund items with decimal quantities
• Issue and display digital and printed receipts with decimal quantities
• Review your inventory and transactions with decimal quantities in Dashboard
  
  

By participating in this beta and providing us with feedback, you will directly influence and improve this feature. If interested, please comment to this post or reach out to betafeedback@squareup.com. From there, we'll reach out directly with the next steps! 

Thanks!

Phil, Square Beta Team

Hi all - Our feature to bill by decimal quantities is starting to roll out now. Keep an eye out for the feature being available in your dashboard over the next week or so.

Thank you for the feedback Gary. I am a Product Manager on this feature and would love to chat with you and find out more about your business's needs. Will be reaching out to you via email.

I can't tell you how exciting this is for us! Seems like a small thing, but for a fabric shop, it's critical. This has been the only thing I don't absolutely love about Square. I would LOVE to Beta test this feature!

[xocomalena]

Please grant us access. We buy by the pound and sell by the piece.

Thanks

[Lini]

Hello,

I would like to participate in this decimal quantities beta review. This a huge deal for my business.

Thanks! 

[SSSchmidt]

Yes, I would like to try it in our store!

[SQPhil]

Hi!

Thank you for your intesest in this beta! We are not currently testing on Square Register. I have added you to the list of merchants to contact when we do. Please let me know if you have an iOS device you'd like to test this on and I'll gladly turn on this feature.

[randalstroup]

The instructions are very confusing, and they mention something about not modifying items already in the online store. Please clarify for us. Thx

[SQPhil]

Hi, 

Thank you for the feedback! I will reach out shortly via email and assist you from there.

[PapaBBQ]

Rusted Silo would like to participate in this beta test.  One question, will this work with the Square Restaurant App?

[winereveler]

I'd be interested in this feature- we're a wine bar and need to track glasses sold out of our bottle inventory. Thanks!

[SQPhil]

Hi! 

Thank you for your interest in this beta. We are not currently testing on Square Terminal, but I have added you to the list of merchants to contact when we do. If you have an iOS device you'd like to test this on, please let me know and I'll gladly turn this feature on for you. 

[radishandrye]

Please sign us up for this beta!

[GoldenBeltBeef]

Yes! We need this option! We open the beginning of June and didn't realize that this was not an option when we purchased our equipment! We sell beef by the pound and some cuts by the ounce so having this option is EXTREMELY necessary! @SQPhil

Square terminal?

I use an I pad at the farmers market, I also use lenova computers to log in as they are easier to work with, i also woo commerce to sync for my website. does the Beta not work on all of those

[SQPhil]

Hi, 

Thanks for your interest. I have enabled this feature to be used on your iPad. You will receive a separate confirmation email from me, but in the meantime, here is a support center link with instructions on how to get started: https://squareup.com/help/us/en/article/6639

[mweaver]

Does this allow us to use an integrated scale to sell by weight?

[SQPhil]

Hi, 

This beta does not include scale integration, althought it is something we are looking into. 

Thanks for your interest! 

[nxidis]

Since we're chocolate makers, being able to use pounds and ounces would be great. Please include us. 

Thanks!
