For a customer order line for which the Sales UoM = kg and the Customer ‘s UoM = lb, what controls the number of decimal places displayed for the Customer Sales Qty? In the order lines below, why is the Customer Sales Qty showing up to 25 decimal places? Is there any way possible to limit this to 1 decimal place?

The Qty Calc Rounding for the inventory part connected to the sales part = 1.

In the Sales Part Cross Reference, the Sales UoM = kg, the Conv Factor = 0.45359, the Invert Conv Factor = 1, and the Customer’s UoM = lb.

 

@matt.watters This was already identified by IFS Product Development (RnD) as an Enhancement request for future releases. Given below is the justification given by them on the current system behavior,

‘According to the current functionality it is not possible to round any quantities in the system. At present the quantity fields allow the user to enter as many decimals as possible since the assumption is that the user wants the qty with that number of decimals.

The same assumption is made when you have entered conversion factors so that the system automatically calculates the qty. Within the current functionality the conversion factor used on the Sales Part Cross Reference will determine how the calculation is carried out. If you want to avoid a lot of decimals you need to adjust the conversion factor since there is no way that the system can know how the values should be rounded.’
