Unit-Amount Decimal Places Field, Currency Table
Specifies the number of decimal places the program will display (for example, on invoices and in reports) for sales and purchase prices for items, and for sales prices for resources in this currency. The default setting, 2:5, specifies that sales and purchase prices in foreign currencies will be shown with a minimum of two decimal places and a maximum of five decimal places.
In this field, the number of decimal places can be specified as:
a fixed number.
a minimum and maximum number (separated by a colon).
The following table shows how the progam will use the contents of the Unit-Amount Decimal Places field to show the unit prices 768.963243 and 125 in the specified currencies:
| Contents of Amount Decimal Places Field | Amount shown in Program |
|---|---|

768.9632 125.00 |

In this table, 2:4 denotes that a minimum of two decimal places and a maximum of four decimal places will be shown for unit amounts in DKK. For Italian lira (ITL), the program will show whole amounts (with no decimal places).
This field determines only how unit amounts are shown in the program. You can define rules for rounding unit amounts in foreign currency in the Unit-Amount Rounding Precision field.
This feature will be activated the next time you log on to Microsoft Dynamics NAV.
