Schedule Item Updates with Square Online

Note: Using scheduled item updates requires an upgrade on your Square Online site.

With scheduled item updates in Square Online, you can schedule item visibility and sale price changes ahead of time to run special sales or launch new products. You can schedule updates for individual items or for multiple items via bulk actions. You can also choose when you want items to be updated, and view upcoming and completed schedules on the item details page.
