Rounding Issues with Importing Sales
Can someone please tell me how to avoid MYOB AccountRight rounding line items incorrectly when importing sales data, in my case Service Sales, but judging from the forums, the issue occurs in other types of sale. I have exhausted the Community Forum. And the few users I found with similar rounding issues have had their threads closed without resolution.
After spending a day on developing a process for importing service sales from a CSV to MYOB AccountRight, I really hope you won't tell me this is not possible. Or am I wasting yet more time trying to lay this all out in writing in the forum…
To set up the import process, I was working off MYOB's information here: https://help.myob.com/wiki/display/ar/Import+and+export+fields#expand-Servicesales\
and https://help.myob.com/wiki/display/ar/Importing+data , as well as Moderator and user advice in the forum. But having got everything working on my side, I now come up against MYOB adding rounding errors. I believe this rounding issue is a known error, and if so, it should have been mentioned in the initial information so that I could have saved myself the time and effort.
The issue is that MYOB amounts are, for line items of certain values, increased or decreased by $0.01.
The best way to explain is to see the issue, so I will attached pictures of my import data and the resulting invoice in MYOB. If possible, I will also attached the .txt file with the CSV data.
Additionally, during some tests the Total Amount field was also one cent off what it should be, such that the amounts in the Amount column did not sum to give the Total Amount!
Thank you for any solution.
