Managing Item Cost

Hi,

 

I am currently using QuickBooks Desktop Premier 2021. 

I do have trouble with setting up the item cost correctly.

The U/M for the item is 'Material in ft:in'. The cost is in inches. The Bills from Vendor are in ft.

In the Item Setup I divide the cost of lets say $1.10 by 12. Quickbooks saves 0.09167 instead of 0.0916... . This number is then used to calculate the total in the PO. I try to change the total manually, but Quickbooks does not let me do this.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi Josef90,

 

Welcome to Community!  I'm glad to see you reaching out for assistance with editing the total on your Purchase Order in QuickBooks Desktop Premier 2021.  I'd be happy to help!

 

Based on the detailed description you've provided, it appears to be associated with penny-rounding of amounts.   The program is designed to do rounding line-by-line that can cause a difference in your totals.  Therefore, this isn't something you'd be able to adjust on the PO.
