Decimal Quantities Beta is live!

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

Seems to all work nicely, yet another reason not to write a custom POS, thanks! I'm sure there have been more than a few discussions as to why that feature didn't get baked in from the beginning. Thanks again,

Hi @SQPhil

I received an email that it is live in our account, but when I followed the instructions, it doesn't appear to be activated for The Savory Gourmet Market.

 

Can you check to ensure this is activated for us? Thank you very much 🙂

Hi Phil, 

 

The Savory Gourmet Market is using Square Point of Sale on IOS (I understand it isn't availabe for Square for Retail which is what we have activated on the backend). We desperately need it for all of our foods to be sold by the pound like deli meats, olive bar, make your own salad bar, and produce. Thank you so much!

Hi!  Our company would like to join the beta testing too.  We are a marina and sell gas/fuel for boats.  We need a decimal function too for selling this.  Thanks!
