We have shop orders that the lot size will be a partial number (process manufacturing).  When entered into IFS and then saving it will round the number up.  Is there a setting I’m missing that I need to set so this does not happen?  The partial is critical in that the raw material requirements are designed to use full quantities (full pallets or big bags) and this calculates the number to require more than what we want.

What Qty Calc Rounding is set for the manufactured Inventory Part?

@Björn Hultgren I work with Joe and this is currently set to 0.  I did try changing it to 5, but when I changed the Lot Size on an existing open Shop Order for that part (in Planned state) it still rounds up to a whole number.

Would it only apply to new Shop Orders when they are created?

@NickPorter  Not sure, when I tried I could change the lot size to decimals directly after updating the inventor part (shop order in planned status). Maybe it also requires the unit of measure to not be set to discrete. Not really sure
