Is it possible to add a repeat button

Is it possible to add a repeat button

Hi there. Wondering if it is possible to add a repeat button to any one item that has already been 'sent' and ordered? For example I have a customer that order's a Grey Goose Martini with special instructions "light vermouth, blue cheese stuffed olives" .. It takes so much time to have to re-type every time, and not all instances re-occur frequently enough to warrant adding a 'modifier'.

Why is there still no repeat sale button or able to increase the items sold on an open ticket in Square retail? I use it at a bar/restaurant. It would make it so much easier. 

We have been asking for a few years now. This can’t be that hard. I have a Square POS system and if I have to change to Square restaurant I would have to pay more and this works for my bar. What is taking so long? 

Has any progress been made?  We would love this feature.  Thanks

Hey @Clandestino,

 

Thanks for adding your vote to this feature request! While we don't have an update at the moment, we'll let our team know that this is still something you're hoping we improve. We'll update this thread with any news.

 

PS. I noticed it's your first post, welcome to our community 👋 

It doesn't seem like there is a desire to add this. So many people have asked for it, and it's merely a software coding question for them. They just dont want to.  

We have a need for this in our coffee house. As it stands now, we have to create a new item such as "Natalie - blended mocha, 1-shot, almond milk, ez ice, sugar free). Then we assign the same modifiers that we would to a regular "blended mocha" drink. It works, except that it's a pain to create each one of these, and the counts are not accurate out of the box.

Please make this a feature!

Hi @Bcenigma - Welcome back to The Seller Community 😊

 

 

I can totally see the need for a feature like this and how beneficial it could be for sellers. I'll be happy to move this over to a feature request board so that our engineers have visibility of your suggestion. We appreciate you sharing your request. While there is no time frame for when it will be implemented, i'm happy to make sure our engineers have eyes on your request. 

 

As always, feel free to stop by The Community with question, concerns and even feature requests. We are more than happy to assist.

 

Has this feature been added to the square POS app?

No not as of yet! I’m not quite sure why. I’ve been using for years and I’m thinking it may be time to move on. The little things like this requested have never been updated. Reopening a tab to adjust a tip or saving a card to close a tab. Restaurant POS is too expensive and not user friendly. I wish they could do at least the repeat button though.
