Round Cash Transactions in POS

Modified on Mon, 13 Jan at 12:43 PM

Cash rounding is the practice of rounding a bill's total value to the nearest 5 cents. Additionally, it refers to the total cost of purchase rather than the price of each individual item.


Things to know:

  • This is controlled by a hidden setting that only the MyTime team can enable. To enable the hidden setting, please contact our Support Team at support@mytime.com.
  • The functionality is only applicable to cash payments
  • If you use cash rounding, you won't have to adjust your prices
  • If this option is enabled, entering an unrounded amount on the 'Take Payment' page will trigger an error message
  • Round cash also applies to changes due. For example, if the original ticket price is $1.03 and the client pays $2.00 in cash, MyTime will display the change due as $0.95.
  • The Float and Cash to Bank fields in the Close Register procedure adhere to the setting, preventing staff members from entering whole cent amounts, such as 0.03, in those fields.
  • The daily revenue and compensation reports display the actual amount of money collected and the service's actual price, while the daily payments report only shows what was collected.


Here are a few examples of how cash rounding works:

If you adjust your setting to "$0.05" once this setting is activated, it will round pennies up or down to the nearest $0.05.


Item Value Rounding  Cash Payment
$1.01 or $1.02 Rounding down $1
$1.03 or $1.04 Rounding up $1.05
$1.06 or $1.07 Rounding down $1.05
$1.08 or $1.09 Rounding up $1.10
