Sellers create their own inventory adjustment reason types, such as shrinkage, damage, or theft, instead of choosing from a fixed list. Custom reasons appear in inventory history, making it easier to categorise and track stock losses by cause.

Sellers can set a future available count to ensure the system reflects the right quantity at a specific time — whether an item is sold out and being prepped again, or currently available and being planned ahead. This count can also repeat on a daily or weekly cadence to support workflows where items are regularly prepared in batches.

Servers can begin and save a table after entering a guest count, even before adding items to the order. The table stays occupied on the floor plan from the moment guests are seated, keeping table status accurate during service.

Item listing status labels now use "hidden" and "not hidden" to control whether an item appears in Shop All and Order Online pages on your Square business website. Hidden items can still be purchased via direct link or added to featured items or sections on your website. This toggle appears under Channels in the item edit sheet, or as "Hidden status" when bulk editing. This replaces the previous "Hidden" and "Direct link only" labels — there's no change to how the setting works.

Set receipt font size to small, medium, or large on a per-station basis for easier reading by customers and staff.

Square Point of Sale plays a tone through the device speaker when a card payment is declined, making declines easier to hear in noisy or busy environments. Turn the speaker cue on or off and preview the sound from device settings.

Assign a negative price to any modifier option and Square deducts it from the item total at checkout — no manual adjustments needed. For example, set "no cheese" to -$1 and it comes off automatically when a customer selects it.

Hide fulfilment methods that don't apply to your business, like removing Shipments if you don't send orders by post. You can also show a running sales total for a logged-in team member.

Control whether the first variation is automatically selected or manually chosen before the item is added to a check. This setting operates independently of the Skip customisation when possible option.

Turn on the full-screen alert with a looping chime that plays on Point of Sale when an online or third-party marketplace order arrives. The alert repeats until a team member acknowledges it. Adjust alert duration, sound, and on/off state per device in settings.

## A setting on Terminal allows you to print a second itemised receipt at the end of a standard checkout. Enable it per device — it won't apply to your other Terminals automatically.

Set different prices for the same item across multiple locations in a single action instead of one at a time. Price overrides are grouped by item for easier review.

Sync item grids created in Standard Mode from one location to others without rebuilding them manually at each location.

Staff can add allergens, dietary preferences, and custom notes to each seat on an order. These details show up on tickets and the kitchen display so every dish is prepared correctly.

On the Square for Restaurants floor plan (iOS and Android tablets), team members can press and hold an occupied table and drag it onto another table to move the check. Dragging onto another occupied table prompts a merge confirmation. A passcode or permission is required when moving another team member's check.

A display setting hides sold-out modifier options from checkout screens so only in-stock choices appear. Those with large modifier lists — like dozens of ice cream flavours — see only available items instead of scrolling through unavailable ones.

Printer profiles can be set to automatically print or skip tickets for entire item categories. New categories added in the future follow the same rules without manual updates.

When setting up a cycle count, you can select a category to automatically add all items within it. This lets you populate your cycle count without selecting items one by one.

Manual discounts support advanced rules including category-based targeting, buy-one-get-one (BOGO) offers, and conditional logic. These rule types, previously limited to automatic discounts, can be configured when creating or editing any manual discount.

Sellers whose accounts have been deactivated for compliance reasons can submit an appeal directly from the Square Support Portal. The self-service appeal process lets you provide additional information for Square to review your case, without needing to contact support.

You can assign custom text colours to modifiers so they stand out on your Kitchen Display System. Colours are configured per modifier from the Modifiers page in the Items section of Square Dashboard.

Ticket numbers automatically reset to #1 before each business day. The reset fires 15 minutes before your configured opening hours, or at 4 am if business hours aren't set. The existing max-value reset (at 100 or 1,000) still applies, so tickets reset on whichever trigger comes first: time of day or max reached.

Dark mode is available across all Square Point of Sale apps on iOS, not just Food & Beverage. The updated colour scheme matches market design standards for improved readability in low-light environments such as bars, theatres, and spas.

Kiosk mode includes a dedicated settings experience where you can manage device groups, assign menus, configure branding, and control individual kiosk devices. All kiosk configuration lives in one place rather than requiring navigation across multiple settings screens.

If CAPTCHA verification fails during login, you can verify your identity through a magic link sent to your email address. This provides an alternative way to access your account without being blocked by false-positive CAPTCHA results.
