Decimal precision - 0.0100     

Sale Quotation Qty. - 1.236

Sale Delivery Qty. - 1.240


Here you can see that rounding precision will apply on position of digit 1, it is placed third from the left ,that is how decimal precision works.


Decimal Precision works for the purchase side also.

Note : Make sure that your product has on hand qty; otherwise it will give 0 reserved qty for Delivery and Receipt. 


Now go to cm UoM ,Here you can see that type is Smaller than the reference Unit of Measure, because cm is 100 times smaller than the meter ,which is a ratio of centimeter compared to meter.
