Use more than 2 digits for Unit Price

Billit calculates the total price in order to avoid validation errors in Peppol. In your Billit environment for unit prices 2 digits are used. This is very common, but sometimes automated calculation of totals by Billit can generate a minor difference in price totals.
In order to get maximum accuracy, you can increase the number of digits after the comma. You can increase this to 3, 4 or 5. The more digits the higher the accuracy, but of course it depends also on how many digits/decimals the invoicing software can deliver.

  • Unit price (most important to avoid rounding errors)
  • Quantity (if you have quantities with digits)

If you want to activate more decimals, Go to the MyBillit user interface to Settings, General, and edit:

With the API you can then send unit prices with more digits on the level of invoice lines. Example:
