Hi Community,

I would appreciate information on how to solve this problem. My problem is how to indicate the number of decimals for a variable that comes from business central, by default it shows me 2 decimals in word, however I need 5 (in business central it handles even more decimals, but I need 5). And on the other hand also the date format since I can customize it. Attached image:

If you want to control the number of decimals that needs to be defined in the report it self, you can not change that behavior in the report layout.

In the report you have to use the decimal place property for the fields you want to control.

Hi, Inge is right. But there are additional factors to keep in mind.

You also need to check the following setup in General ledger Setup.

If you are using foreign currency, you will also need to confirm the currency settings.

Hope this helps as well.

Thanks.
