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

[BathingBeauties]

We would love to try this asap! Thank you!

[SQPhil]

Hi! 

We aren't currently testing this on Square for Retail. I'll add you to the list of merchants to contact once we do start. Would you still like to test out this feature on your iOS devices?

Hi!

Thanks for your interest in this beta. At this time, the beta is only for IOS and we do not support Square Register yet. I've added you to the list of merchants to contact once we do start testing Square Register. 

In the meantime, would you like me to enable this feature for your iOS devices?

I would love to participate as I sell loose leaf tea and it would be helpful to have my quantities in ounces.

Thanks!

Can you please add my employee [Personal Information Redacted]? She cannot access the app nor can she post on here through her account as only business owners can.

[Wagyuru]

How do we add employees to the beta version? They can't sign in to the beta app and they can't post here to be added.

[SQPhil]

Hi, 

You do not need to use the beta version of Square Point of Sale to use this new feature. I see that the feature has already been turned on for your account and you should see decimal quantities live on your Point of Sale app. Here is a link to our support center with further instructions on how to get started: https://squareup.com/help/us/en/article/6639

In regards to your employees, if they are listed as an employee under your account, they will also have access to this beta.

This is something we definitely want to be a part of!!  We are opening our beef retail store in a week and I’m desperately trying to figure out how I’m going to have the employees run this when we sell and price by the pound yet I can’t set our inventory up that way. Please give us demicals!!!!

[WodaBotanicals]

I am brand new to Square, retail store selling bulk herbs, spices, and teas. Customer self-serve and priced by the ounce. I would like to have access to this Beta. 

[Jtrietsch]

I would like to talk with someone about this. I requested this a couple years ago and have since found ways around it. I sell meat by the pound.
