Report Rounding Error
JerryD
In running a Net Worth report I am finding that the total for Investments is off by $0.01which I assume is a rounding error. I did find a similar article that said to go to Edit -> Preferences, select Reports Only and change "Decimal place for prices and shares" to the desired precision (0-6). It had been set to 3, and I've tried setting it to 2 and 0, but the Net Worth report continues to be off by $0.01 as before. Exporting the report to Excel and using Excel to SUM values (which are all 2 decimals) confirms the error.
Can this be fixed? I am using Quicken Deluxe Version R33.24, Build 27.1.33.24 on Windows 10.
Thank you.

Off by 1 penny compared to what?
And note that my brokerage, Fidelity, truncates fractional pennies while Q uses traditional 5/4 rounding ... so if the pennies on a single position agree, it's a coincidence.
Sometimes I'll be off by 4 or 5 cents in the account with 15 positions. SO, just remember: "DON'T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF"

I understand Banker's Rounding and all the other variants. That's not the issue. Even when exporting a Net Worth report to Excel, the math doesn't work. Kind of disconcerting when your bookkeeping app can't add!

Try expanding the digits to 6. And you never answered by "compared to what" question.
If you could post a snapshot, from Q, of the issue it would be helpful.
