# Upcoming Update: Removal of the Penny & Cash Rounding in coreSTORE

As part of upcoming improvements to **coreSTORE**, we will soon be introducing support for **cash rounding** to align with regions that no longer use the penny. These updates are designed to make cash handling simpler and more accurate for both you and your customers.

> **Please note:** These features are not live yet. This article is provided to help you understand what will be changing once the update is released.

## Overview

Many businesses operate in areas where pennies are no longer in circulation. To accommodate this, coreSTORE will soon include a **Cash Rounding** feature that automatically rounds cash transactions to the nearest nickel (0.05).

This rounding applies **only to cash payments** and only when the feature is turned on.

## What’s Changing

### Cash Rounding Options  
Once released, you will be able to choose how your system rounds totals on cash transactions. Options will include:

* **Disabled (No Rounding)**  
  Your totals remain unchanged. This is the default option.

* **Round to the Nearest $0.05**  
  Totals will round either up or down depending on which nickel value they are closest to.  
* Example: 10.51 → 10.50  
* Example: 10.53 → 10.55  

* **Always Round Up to $0.05**  
  Totals always round up to the next nickel.  
* Example: 10.51 → 10.55  
* Example: 10.52 → 10.55  

These settings will be available under **Settings > Config > Sales** once the update goes live.

## Receipt Display Options

A new option will also be added to control how rounding appears on receipts:

* **Hide Rounding Adjustment on Receipts**  
  When enabled, the rounding line will be hidden from printed and emailed receipts while still applying the correct rounded total.

This option will be located in **Settings > Config > Receipts** when the feature becomes available.

## When Rounding Applies

Cash rounding will apply **only** to:

* Cash payments  
* The final total after all taxes and fees  

Rounding will **not** apply to:

* Credit card payments  
* Debit payments  
* Store account payments  
* Any non-cash payment methods  

## What Stores Can Expect

Once the update is released, stores will benefit from:

* Faster and simpler cash handling  
* No longer needing pennies  
* Clear display (or optional hiding) of rounding adjustments  
* Accurate reporting that includes rounding details when enabled  

These improvements ensure smooth, compliant transactions for businesses operating in penny-less regions.

## Release Information

These changes are currently in development and will be included in an upcoming coreSTORE update. We will announce the release date soon and provide a full walkthrough of the new settings once they are available in your system.
