Rounding Entries

bcoleman

Hello all -

I was hoping someone might be able to shed some light for me on best practices regarding rounding entries in NAV 2009 Classic Client.

We use NAV in a manufacturing company and are heavy users of the Manufacturing module. We have item standard costs that go to 6 decimal places. We will "output" in quantities of lbs. So, for example, we will output a line with a quantity of 1,400 lbs at .389838 per lb. The value entry will be posted at $545.77. However, when we run adjust cost, we will get numerous entries adding and subtracting $0.01. Sometimes, it will hit and re-hit an ILE line each time we run adjust cost. Everything ultimately hits the G/L correctly.

So what's the problem? A full 18% of my G/L entries are these $0.01 adds and subtracts. In one of our plants I'm up to almost 4 million G/L entries of just these $0.01 lines. I'm not super concerned by it, but it just feels wrong. It takes longer than normal to run adjust cost and it does impact performance somewhat.

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks for your help in advance!
