Record Rounding As (SellTreez v70.4.0 or later)
Choose how the rounding difference is recorded
Discount or Fee
Rounding down is recorded as a discount.
Rounding up is recorded as a non-inventory fee.
The discount or fee changes the ticket total and may affect tax calculations.
Rounding discounts are tracked in the Sales Discount Report.
Rounding fees are tracked in the Sales Product Report.
Final Adjustment 🆕
The rounding difference is applied after all ticket calculations are completed.
It changes only the final amount due.
It does not change the underlying ticket total, taxes, discounts, or fees.
This option requires Rounding Direction to be set to Round to the Nearest.
Rounding adjustments are tracked in the Sales Product Report.
Each rounding adjustment is recorded as a non-inventory ticket line.
Rounding represents the final rounding difference and Total Collected is the gross receipts plus the rounding adjustments.
Use Final Adjustment when rounding should change the amount collected without changing the ticket’s calculated sales or tax amounts. This configuration is recommended for Arizona operators.
How Rounding is Applied
Round Down
Recorded as an item-level discount distributed across all items on the ticket
Decreases the final total
Decreases taxes if cannabis taxes are calculated after discounts
Tracked in the Sales Discount Report
Round Up
Recorded as a non-inventory fee line item
Increases the final total
Configurable tax behavior
Tracked in the Sales Product report
Round to the Nearest
Determines whether to round up or down
If exactly halfway between two values, rounds to the nearest even value to keep totals balanced over time (Bankers Rounding).
Can be configured to record as discount and fee, or a final rounding adjustment.
Nearest (Bankers Rounding) Examples:
Nickel ($0.05)
$10.025 → $10.00
$10.075 → $10.10
Dime ($0.10)
$10.05 → $10.00
$10.15 → $10.20
Quarter ($0.25)
$10.125 → $10.00
$10.375 → $10.50
Dollar ($1.00)
$10.50 → $10.00
$11.50 → $12.00
How Cash-Only Auto Rounding Works at Checkout
Required Configurations
Rounding Mode = Automatic
Rounding Applies To = Cash and Integrated Cashless ATM Only
Select Checkout or Pay on a sale from POS to navigate to the payment screen:
Rounding is not applied automatically when entering the POS payment screen
The payment screen displays the rounded Cash Total on the right beneath the original unrounded Total. The Balance reflects the current amount due without rounding. The Cash Total is used once cash payment is confirmed.
Example: Total and Balance: $30.78 | Cash Total: $30.80 (+$0.02)
All preset cash tender buttons are generated based on the cash rounded total
The ticket closes using the cash rounded total when:
A preset cash tender button is tapped
A Custom "Other" cash amount is entered via the pin pad for the full balance
Integrated Cashless ATM is initiated
Change due is calculated from the rounded total
The rounding difference (recorded as a discount, fee, or final rounding adjustment) is reported with the completed sale as normal
Partial (Split) Payment: If a transaction is split between cash and any non-cash payment method, auto rounding does not apply. The ticket closes using the standard unrounded total with no rounding difference recorded.
Additional Notes
Rounding is applied after entering POS checkout, not while building the cart
Rounding is preserved when leaving POS checkout without completing the sale
Rounding that was previously applied is automatically removed if the cart is updated by changing the products, discounts, or any other updates that can impact the current amount due
Re-entering POS checkout allows rounding to be applied again if the current order total is no longer rounded
Rounding can only be applied once per transaction
Rounding can only be applied within the POS
Rounding application is not currently supported through the External Ticket API
Rounding is not applied if the order total already matches the selected rounding denomination

How To Configure the Round Up Fee as Taxable
By default, the system-generated Round Up Fee is non-taxable. The configuration for Record Rounding As must be set as Discount or Fee for the round up difference to be set as taxable. Rounding recorded as a Final Adjustment will not change taxes.
If your local regulations require round up fees to be taxed, you can update this in your Tax Configuration settings.
To update the tax setting:
Navigate to the Configuration menu
Select Config Page
Click on Taxes
Select Point of Sale Tax Setup
Click Edit and proceed to the Medical or Adult Use tab
Locate the appropriate tax label row to update and select the Applies to Products dropdown.
Select the checkbox for Round Up Fee under Non-Cannabis to make it taxable
Unselect the checkbox to make it non-taxable
Repeat as needed for other tax labels or the Medical or Adult Use tabs
Save your changes
Important
If tax is currently set to “Everything,” simply unchecking Round Up may still result in it being taxed.
To explicitly exclude it:
Check Round Up Fee
Then uncheck it
Save changes
This ensures it is no longer treated as an “Everything" tax.
✔ Confirm by:
Verifying Applies to Products no longer shows “Everything”.

Special Handling for Low Totals with Round Down
For totals under $1.00, round down applies safeguards to prevent totals from reaching $0 while still eliminating pennies:
Transaction Total | Behavior |
$0.05 or less | No rounding applied. Total remains unchanged. |
$0.06 - $0.10 | Rounds down to $0.05 |
$0.11 - $0.24 | Rounds to nearest $0.05 (or $0.10 if dime selected) |
$0.25 - $0.99 | Rounds to selected denomination (or nickel if dollar selected) |
