Hello,
Is it possible to specify the rounding formula in a automatic transaction?
My specific case is that of tithe, I know I might be nitpicking, but
still, I think it would be useful to have a way to say, always round up in
the X decimal place, or always round down. Here is an example:

The best way is to use a value expression in your automatic transaction:
= /^Income/
(Liabilities:Tithe) (0.1 * round(amount))
Unfortunately, round doesn't seem to let you control the precision so
you won't notice much since it will round to two digits.
I have another request to allow user
I've seen a floor function, but it seems to actually round to the nearest
integer (not a floor as I'm used to). I wonder how do you manage
precision, I would think this should be critical, how do you guys deal with
that?
Andre.
Precision is handled internally to ledger. It keeps as many digits as
the most precise number it has gotten for that commodity. As an
experiment, enter four significant figures for you primary commodity
somewhere in any posting (for example $13.4500 instead of $13.45).
Your balance reports will
Actually, after further thought this is not as accurate as you might
want. If you are looking to calculate 0.1 of your total increase
rounded to the nearest dollar that is different than summing the
rounding of all the individual increases. Ideally you would apply the
rounding on the reporting
Here is the format string I mentioned. This is for the cleared
report. It colorizes lines whose cleared and uncleared balances
aren't equal, and uses the floor function on any account with Owed
in the name. For me that means Tithe Owed.
