How we deal with rounding

To handle rounding issues that can happen in supplier invoicing, we have amended the way we are dealing with all ordering and invoicing related pages in the application to ensure there is a standardised approach.

The below summarises what users will see from the 17th January:

1. Booking off

The net total of each line in the order will display up to 4 decimal places when booking off. This had previously displayed 2 decimal places only.

The total for the order will remain a 2 decimal place figure.

 This ensures the total is being calculated using more accurate line totals rather than using already rounded totals.

2. Estimates

The net total of each line in the estimate will display up to 4 decimal places.

This also applies when converting, combining and reversing an estimate, the net total for each line will display up to 4 decimal places.

The total value of the estimate will remain a 2 decimal place figure.

3. Invoices

The net total of each line in the invoice and credit note will display up to 4 decimal places.

When approving EDI invoices, the net total for each line will show up to 4 decimal places.

The total net, VAT and gross of an invoice and credit note will always be displayed as 2 decimal places.
