Allow for using up to 3 decimal places on items in a Purchase Order
Problem: Purchase order with 5 of the same item. The total cost to me is $134.01. So, the exact cost per item is $26.802. RS will only allow me to add up to 2 decimal places, giving me an incorrect cost by a penny. I have to add the penny difference into "Other Charges" in order for the PO to be correct. Please allow for up putting in up to 3 decimal places so that we can see exact costing on our Purchase Orders. Thanks so much.

I have this 2 digit decimal place problem all the time trying to round out exact amounts and alway having to tweak it out to balance out.
With inventory purchases in particular where the supplier is like $0.0347 is an issue when I order 500 pieces and it becomes off balance. So even having it optional to allow 3 or 4 decimal places would be a very practical feature.
Another annoyance is when the two decimal places are zero it drops them or the last digit being zero is dropped from display. $20.00 shows as $20 and $20.50 shows as $20.5. This is not normal.
