Postage: 80.00
Total VAT amount: 128.25 + 30.78 + 20.00 = 179.03
Total in SEK: 769.50 + 80.00 + 179.03 = 1028.53
Invoice total in SEK: 1029.00
Coin adjustment in SEK: 1028.53 – 1029.00 = -0.47

In the Currency table for the SEK currency, the Adjust inv amount field is 1.00, which means that invoice amounts should always be rounded off to the nearest even Swedish krona.
