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…

I definitely agree that this is a terrible idea! It is more efficient for my store to do a simple price override when necessary…

This is a really frustrating change. Our store staff use this feature daily. We had POS before the price override was put in place, and we had to keep calculators to calculate the discounts to add to each item. It opens up too much room for error. I don’t know what their new features are, but I am …

Hi Melody, will these new features be coming before November 1st, or even better, with the removal of Price Override? If not, this will force us to use calculators to figure out discounts during the Holiday season, slowing down our service to customers and our process. I hope Shopify understands ho…

Hi Melody! our company was looking into purchasing apps for discounting product to improve our Shopify POS experience. Is there any chance we can get an ETA or find out what kind of improvements are being made to Shopify POS in regards to discounts? thanks so much!

Unless they replace “price override” with a “price override” feature, this is a bad idea that will cause a slow down and mistakes at the register. Please, please, bring back a quick and easy “price override” feature. Seriously, who was the “genius” that came up with this idea?

What form will the new discounting functionality take and when can we expect it? Why would this function needed to be removed before new functionality is actually released? Now we will have to use a calculator to work out the discount, which will slow down our entire checkout process. What a backwa…

Being a new customer to shopify and just starting to use this today. This is very unsatisfying to me. We are constantly overriding prices in our store. I’m sad to hear that this function was removed just days before i started using this system. There needs to be a justifiable solution to this. Anyon…

This is an absolutely terrible decision by Shopify. Clearly the developers have no idea how a retail environment operates. Please Shopify bring this feature back. I see that as of today there is a new CODE section for the discount where the price override used to be - this is much more applicable to…

Rest assured; the paper pushers at Shopify who made this decision have never run a retail shop in their life. Can’t wait for these new “discount functionalities”… I’m sure they are well thought out.
