In reviewing a PO in the Order mgmt tool, the sales tax and Grand totals display more than 2 decimal point digits..

also, in one particular instance the shipping charge applied to an order with two items incorrectly charged for shipping for only one item (shipping based on quantity) and the grandtotal listed for the order was way off.. are these related problems (the wrong shipping charge being applied and the grand total being off...)?

thx
Jim

in reply to my own message, I have confirmed why the grand total appeared off (a whole order discount was applied to order, but we have no way of knowing that from report)... but the shipping charge applied was still wrong...

my question remains about too many digits..

thx again
Jim

I also have the same problem. Since I'll be using this as the customer receipt, I would be nice to have the tax and subtotal only show 2 decimal places.

There must be an easy fix!?!?!? :-)

EDIT: Looking over the code it seems the variables for tax and grand total are not converted to Currency before display. Sound right Will?

That's correct. Please submit this a bug/feature request and we'll have it fixed.

The simple code fix for this is to change the code. It should look something like this:

<%=MyCurrency(Products1.Fields.Item("Price").Value)%>

Actually, I think the code would be in the format simliar to:

<%=FormatCurrency(Products1.Fields.Item ("Price").Value)%>

Thanks Will!
