Packing slips show strange unit prices

When printing packing slips showing unit prices, the pricing appears with multiple numbers after the decimal point. As we usually deal in whole dollar amounts, this is unsettling to clients, especially when items priced the same on invoices have different unit pricing on packing slips! I have $34.00 prices today on the one packing slip as $34.004107, $34.002558 and $33.986486! The same item code gives a different price on the next. Even stranger is that not every packing slip does this - the third one entered/printed is only two decimals eg. $34.00.

 

What causes this/how can I prevent it showing? I can't see where to force a two decimal condition.

    With AccountRight 2019.3 and later, two new columns were added for selection on an item based, customised form: EX PRICE 2 &  INC PRICE 2. These columns can be added to show only two decimal places of the price.

     

    You can add these columns to your customise form via Setup >> Customise Forms >> Invoices >> Items >> and then select the form before selecting 'Customise.' Once in the customise forms window, right-click on the invoice table and select 'Show Hide Columns' before selecting the desired column to add (you may want to remove the other column at the same time).

     

    Note: You can move the column order on customised forms by clicking and dragging the column into position within the table. Our Help Article: Add tables to forms has a clip of the process in action. Column widths may need to be resized after that move.

     

    Do let us know how you get on and if you have any other questions.
