❖ Getting Started
Price Rounding
- Navigate to Admin Dashboard → WooCommerce → Settings.
- The price rounding field in the currency table. It will be a dropdown field.
- Every Currency has its own price rounding dropdown. So every currency can have different rounding settings.
- There will be a pre-defined option in the dropdown for the admin to select. (None, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 5, 10).
- None will have no effect on the price rounding on the front-end.
- When 0.25 is selected, the system will round the price by 0.25. For example, after converting the price to another currency USD to MYRM and the price is in decimal, then the price will be rounded by 0.25, like after converting if the price is RM2.17, then the price will be automatically rounded to 2.25 as 0.25 is the rounding factor. If the price is already in the rounding factor, like 2.25, 2.5, 2.75, or 3, then there will be no change to the price.
- When 0.5 is selected, the rounded price of RM2.17 will be RM2.50, as 0.50 is the rounding factor. If the price is already in the rounding factor, like 2.5 or 3, then there will be no change to the price.
- When 1 is selected, the rounded price of RM2.17 will be RM3, as 1 is the rounding factor. If the price is already in the rounding factor, like 2 or 3, then there will be no change to the price.
- When 5 is selected, the rounded price of RM2.17 will be RM5 as 5 is the rounding factor. If the price is already in the rounding factor, like 5, 10, or 15, then there will be no change to the price.

NOTE: If both the Price Rounding and the Price Charming options are active then the sequence of the workflow would be that first the Price Rounding value will be applied and then the Price Charming value will be applied.We can see that the values in the Price Rounding and the Price Charming option is None.
According to this configuration, we can see that in Front-End Impact the prices are not changed.
Now when set the Price Rounding option value to 0.5 and the Price Charming option value to None.
According to this configuration, we can see that in Front-End Impact the prices are rounded off to the value 0.5.
Now when set the Price Charming option value to -0.05 and the Price Rounding option value was already set to 0.5.
According to this configuration, we can see that in Front-End Impact the prices which were rounded off to the value 0.5 now will be price charmed to the value of -0.05.
