In the following bean file, I purchase $1,000.00 of a Vanguard fund.
Vanguard reports shares to three decimal places.
option "operating_currency" "USD"
option "booking_algorithm" "FULL"
2017-12-01 commodity USD
2017-12-01 commodity VFIAX
2017-12-01 open Assets:Checking
2017-12-01 open Equity:Opening-Balances
2017-12-01 open Assets:Vanguard VFIAX "FIFO"
2017-12-01 * "Opening balance"
Assets:Checking 1000.00 USD
Equity:Opening-Balances
2017-12-27 * "Buy retirement fund shares"
Assets:Vanguard 4.039 VFIAX {}
Assets:Checking -1000.00 USD
Using bean-web, in the trail balance report for all transactions, the USD
column totals -0.00 and the total balance is -0.0000000000000000000000001
USD. Other reports appear correct.
The share purchase transaction details show a basis of
999.9999999999999999999999999 USD instead of 1000.00 USD. *How can I
configure Beancount to round the basis to the customary two decimal places
for USD?*
