Change Amount Rounding Precision (LCY)

(5) ShareShare

Posted on by 49
Hello,
I need to reduce decimals in local currency. So far, I changed these fields in General Ledger Setup:
 
But so far this is for a visual effect since decimals are still considered internally. 
 
I think we need to change the field Amount Rounding Precision (LCY), which we can't do it just by updating the field. It's required to be done before any transactions are posted.
 
Has anyone been through this? If so, if you could share how you were able to solve it, we would really appreciate it.  
I have the same question (0)

    You're correct: Amount Decimal Places (LCY) is for display, while Amount Rounding Precision (LCY) controls internal calculations.

    The Amount Rounding Precision (LCY) field cannot be changed once transactions have been posted in Business Central. This is a critical financial setting for data integrity.

    The only safe and supported method is to start a new Business Central company, configure the desired precision before posting any transactions, and then migrate your data. If a new company isn't feasible, you must continue with the current precision and rely on Amount Decimal Places (LCY) for visual display only. Direct modification of this field on a live company with transactions is highly risky and not recommended.
