Improve Cash Payment Details, Rounding, and Change Across the Entire System and Its Apps

The Idea:
Standardize and complete cash payment details across all order pages and printed and electronic receipts, clearly showing the cash received and change due to the customer, with configurable cash rounding based on the currency.

Key Features:

• Payment Details: Display the payment method, order total, actual cash received, change due to the customer, and any outstanding amount owed by the customer.

• Cash Rounding: Provide a configurable setting to round the final cash payment total to the nearest denomination in circulation, such as the nearest 5 cents. Show the rounding adjustment and final total, and apply rounding only to cash payments.

• Automatic Change Calculation: Calculate change using the cash received and the total after rounding. For example: order total 6.05 dollars, cash received 10.00 dollars, and change due 3.95 dollars.

• Clear Labels: Use separate labels for “Cash Received” and “Change Due,” and correct the current “Payment change” label to avoid confusion.

• Accurate Payment Status: Distinguish between the amount the customer indicates they will pay with and the cash actually received. Update the status to “Paid” once full payment collection is confirmed.

• System-Wide Coverage: Apply the same information and calculations across the backend, frontend, POS, and all connected apps and add-ons, including the customer’s order page and all receipts and invoices.

This improvement is essential to ensure clear and accurate cash transactions.
