Oh <poop> indeed, that looks like a bug. What's happening is that division will be processed by the parser and produce the full 28 decimal digits of precision, and that it used as input for tolerance inference (and it shouldn't be IMO) and then because your other amount is an integer (331) it doesn't contribute to the tolerance inference. I need to find a solution for this, probably disable inference from computed numbers... this is a case where the per-transaction tolerance inference fails - congratulations you've found a bug.
In the meantime, changing your first amount from -331 SUD to -331.00 USD should do the trick, because it'll expand the tolerance on USD to 0.005 and that's enough Tracking bug: https://bitbucket.org/blais/beancount/issue/56/figure-out-how-to-disable-tolerance On Wed, Jun 10, 2015 at 12:03 PM, <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm not sure I understand how the divide operator interacts with the > recent tolerance changes, if it does.
