## How to Set Decimal Precision for Rates in the Sale Bill?

In this tutorial, we’ll guide you through the steps to **customize the number of decimal places** for item rates in packs and units within Logic ERP. This setting allows for greater precision when entering rates in sales transactions.

***

### Understanding the Default Behavior

By default: 

* **Pack/strip rates** are limited to **2 decimal places**.
* **Unit rates** also default to **2 decimal places**.

However, this might not be sufficient for businesses that deal with high-precision pricing (e.g., pharmaceuticals, electronics, or items sold in fractional quantities).

***

### Step-by-Step: Enabling Extended Rate Decimals

* Navigate to the **Sale Voucher Configuration**.
* Select the desired **Series** from the dropdown list.
* Navigate to the **Other Settings – 3** tab.
* Locate the option: **"Rate Decima**l**"**
* From the dropdown, select either:
  * Default 
  * Packs=4. Units=7

* Switch from **“Default”** to **“4 Decimal (Packs) / 7 Decimal (Units)”**.
* **Click Save** to apply the changes.

### Testing the Configuration

Let’s validate the new settings with a quick test:

**For Packs:**

* Choose a conversion factor such as **strip**.
* Enter a rate like 125.4567.

* The system now **accepts up to 4 decimal places** for the pack rate.

**For Units:**

* Enter a rate such as 5.1234567.
