Discount feature request and current issues - Squa...

A couple of things regarding discounts:

* Feature request - discounts allowed only on certain categories. For example an category, "Alcohol", may only have a subset of discounts available to be applied.

* Issue - Discounts using a automatic time setting - such as Happy Hour. Sometimes the discount will be automatically applied outside of the defined time frame.

HI, hopefully this Square Support page will help. Scroll down to Create Automatic Discounts.

I've created automatic discounts based on a time schedule. The problem is that they will get randomly applied outside of the the schedule.

HI, have you tried to set up time based categories?

Thanks, but this is for Restaurants, not the online store.

HI, select any of your Categories and scroll down to Availability.

Thanks, but that's not what I'm reporting. I see it randomly where a discount will be applied outside of the time frame that is defined. Some times, the discount amount is also wrong.
