Configuring Base Currency and Rounding

  1. Select the Enterprise, property, or zone, click Setup, and then click Currency Parameters.
  2. Select the Base Currency from the drop-down list. This is the primary currency for the location.

    Set the base currency once during initial configuration of a property, prior to opening guest checks. When you change the base currency after opening checks, the EMC prompts you for verification twice.

  3. To use rounding, select 4 - Round Currency. Selecting this option activates the subsequent options. Select the appropriate options to round the amount due:
    • 5 - ON = Round to Nearest 0; OFF = Round to Nearest 5: Select this option to round currency amounts to the nearest 0 (for example, 163.336 rounds to 163.340). Deselect this option to round currency amounts to the nearest 5 (for example, 163.336 rounds to 163.335).

    • 6 - ON = Round to Second-Least Significant Digit; OFF = Round to Least Significant Digit: Select this option to round currency amounts based on the second least significant digit (for example, in 100.45, the second least significant digit is 4). Deselect this option to round currency amounts based on the least significant digit (for example, in 100.45, the least significant digit is 5).

  4. Click Save.
