Hi there Community.
I own a Handyman Business and I absolutely LOVE using Square to create Estimate and Invoicing for my clients.
I feel a tad frustrated that when I'm in the process of creating a new Estimate or Invoice, under the new "line item" area, when I'm typing in services or projects requested by my clients, whenever there is something new, it will automatically prompt and ask if you would like to "create a new library item", which is wonderful, except I don't use "library Items" I use "library Services"
I really love the option to create new "items" right in the moment, especially when they will be Services I will utilize again and again.
I just wish there was a way to change the Default from "items" to "services" so that I don't have go into Add Services separately and create the new service, or go into the Item Library and convert all the new "Items" into services.
I hope this make sense what I'm talking about and suggesting
Hey there @Newthomas. That’s a pretty good idea, I think. Square has a formal mechanism for submitting feature requests. When you submit one here, it will go in a queue to be reviewed and evaluated. Also, they invite public comment on submitted ideas. You can just copy/paste this there and the process will get started soon. Good luck!

Thanks for directing @Newthomas to submit a feature request @TheRealChipA 😁
@Newthomas I’ll make sure to pass this request along to our product team as well for consideration in future updates. In the meantime, I definitely understand that manually converting items to services isn’t ideal, and I appreciate your insight.
Thanks to @TheRealChipA for sharing that suggestion. I submitted this as a "feature request" via the link you gave.
@Summer2024 Thanks for passing this request on to the Product Team. I think it could be a great addition/modification to the UI. I get the idea that the original concept of Square's Invoicing software was properly rooted in Retail and other business models dealing with Inventory. But I'm sure I'm not alone in businesses that utilize this software as a Service Based business model and think adding these types of modifications/options or even the ability to customize the usage of the Software would be highly appreciated and maybe even entice other businesses out there to start using Square Invoice .
I hear you, for sure! Thanks for providing your reasoning behind needing this feature as well. Our product teams respond really well to detailed reasoning like this.
Also, here is the Link for my Submission
Thank you for providing this direct link! It will help me when reaching out to the product team on this. 😃
