<p class="Help-Text">Point of Sale supports the use of decimal amounts with up to five decimal places, but displays only two decimal places. You can enter even more than five decimal places, but Point of Sale will round to and store only five.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">If you enter an amount less than $0.005 (one-half penny), Point of Sale displays $0.00, but is indeed storing the fractional cent amount you entered. You can also make an entry in the extended cost/price on a document and then enter the quantity. Point of Sale will calculate the unit cost/price with decimals for you. This feature makes it easier to order, price, and sell items whose cost or price is less than a penny or in fractional cents.</p>
<p class="Help-Text">In the case of item cost and price on documents, the extended cost/price is calculated using the stored five decimals.</p>
<p class="Help-Info-Line">To enter data in the currency fields:</p>
<ol>
<li class="p-Help-Steps" style="font-size: 9pt;">
<p class="Help-Steps">Enter the amount, including decimals.</p>
</li>
</ol>
<ul>
<li class="p-Help-Nested-List" style="font-size: 9pt;">
<p class="Help-Nested-List">If entering an amount in whole currency units, such as 2.00, 47.00, or 103.00, it is not necessary to type the decimal place or trailing zeroes. You can simply type 2, 47, or 13 respectively.</p>
</li>
<li class="p-Help-Nested-List" style="font-size: 9pt;">
<p class="Help-Nested-List">To enter negative amounts, press the dash (<font style="font-style: italic;">)</font> key on your keyboard before entering the amount. Such as: 10.00</p>
</li>
</ul>
<ol start="2">
<li class="p-Help-Steps" style="font-size: 9pt;">

<p class="Help-Note"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Note</span>: The ability to see cost fields, including margin and markup and other fields related to cost, can be controlled by <a href="../qbpos_secadmin/secadminoverview.htm">security rights</a>. If you do not have the right to view item costs, the fields will be masked like this "*****". This right affects cost fields in inventory and on all documents and reports.</p>
