[GNC] Rounding discrepancy in payment processing

[Alaa Zeineldine]

Hello Murugan,

 

My default currency is USD for accounts and for reporting. I have a couple
of bank accounts in EGP, but those do not receive payments, only transfers
from other USD accounts. 

 

I don't think there is a setting for the invoice currency. If I remember
correctly, invoice currency is based on the customer's currency. In my case,
I may have a couple of customers in EUR and one GBP, which are rarely used.
All the rest are in USD. 

 

Regards,

 

Alaa

Hello David,

 

Thanks for the follow up.

>What operating system are you using?

Previously Windows 10 and recently Windows 11. The issue has always been
there since I started using Gnucash about 3 years ago.

 

>Are you up to date with all OS updates?

Yes. Always up to date.

 

>How are you installing 4.12 on your computer( downloaded image , flatpak,
built

I usually download the Windows setup package from Source Forge. Today, I
downloaded 4.13 setup.exe from Github.

 

>Is the rounding occurring as you enter the amount in the invoice?

No. The amount entered in the invoice is the exact amount, and it stays that
way whenever I view the invoice.

 

>Is the rounding occurring in the payment window on entry

The rounding appears when the invoices for a customer as displayed in the
Process Payment dialog. Also, when the invoice is selected, the Payment
field is filled with the rounded amount by default.

Rounded.

This is the first time I email to the list. So, I don't know if screenshots
will show up, but I am including below a succession of screenshots for a
fake customer invoice to demonstrate the problem.

 

1. This is an invoice for $140.16 after posting.

 



 

2.      This is the entry for that invoice in the A/R Aging report before
payment. The amount is rounded down.

 





 

3.      Here is the Process Payment dialog with the default payment amount 

 



 

4.      Here is the dialog after I changed the payment to the exact invoice
amount without rounding

 



 

5.      This is the entry in the A/R Aging report after payment as above

 





 

6.      This how the corresponding entries look in the A/R register

 



 

Thanks for your help.
