Apply Rounding /Apply No Rounding’ option in stockcard

 [this option added Nov 14]

 If psychological pricing (price points) is switched on and you do not want to apply psychological rounding to a particular stock item, then go to the stockcard and select ‘Apply No Rounding’ in the stockcard.

You can apply this change to a range of product in Bulk Stock Edit Utility. Use the filters available to bring up the selected stockcards. Click on the ‘Select Option’ tab. Tick ‘Rounding type’, then select ‘Apply no rounding’.  

In rare situations you may have the option ‘Apply Rounding on Cash Only’ unticked. I.e. you’ve chosen to round the retail prices at the stockcard level. If there is a particular card that you don’t want to round, click on ‘Apply no rounding’ in the stockcard.
