I got an e-mail this morning saying in the upcoming release, Price Overrides will be removed. Why do such a thing? I have to use this feature often for special circumstances. Sure you can do the same thing but not as efficiently as just a simply price change. This slows down productivity. [Screens…

Hello @Skivvies Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding the removal of the Price override feature from Shopify POS. We’ve read the feedback and understand the importance the ability to apply discounts quickly and accurately are to your business. It is clear that while this up…

Why would Shopify make a change to a simple and very useful feature before creating a “new” one that will be so helpful in the future?

We really need this feature!!! Is there any kind of workaround?! Going into the holiday season, there will soooo many mistakes. I already see my employees ringing up multiple items and not realizing an item that was $100 and then marked to $80, they will inevitably sell at $20 by accident. This woul…

Nope. No work around except the “Discount $ Amount”. I don’t understand how Shopify can say they removed it to make way for “better” discount options. I don’t need more discount options, I need a Price Override option. There is no “better” option to this. We already have discount options.

@Shopify_77 does not actually spend every day all day using the system they create. If they did, especially in a retail environment, they would rapidly fix things. Instead they remove functionality, make changes with no notice to users, and then remove customer support (you can only sit in a chat qu…

Hi Melody, I look forward to the new features that are planned for the POS, however, why would you remove a critical tool that many users utilize if not depend on, without testing the new features that would replace it? I hate to demand anything but please bring back the price override function as …

WHYYYYYYY? It’s as though shopify developers have never worked in a store!!! It is illegal to sell an item for more than on the price tag! Plus its bad service!!! removing this option means a tedious custom sale, and screwed up inventory!!! PUT IT BACK PLLLLEAAAAAASSSEEE!!!

Just wow!!! We have 3 brick and mortar stores that offer variable pricing for a number of services. We are just now migrating from another POS. When attempting to set up products on the POS we realized we couldn’t change the price. A quick search revealed this debacle. What in the name of Satan was …

So frustrating! Not cool of Shopify to do this without a workaround. Not even sure what the calculation is to emulate a price override, because I’m not that kind of smart. Will figure it out, hopefully.

What a mind-boggling loss of functionality. Do you not know any retailers you could have consulted first?
