I’m up to my ears in workarounds trying to get some simple rollups and math columns (arithmetic) to work out accurately and it’s driving me a bit batty.

It would be handy if columns that resulted in a number had a checkbox to take care of this, in addition to Precision and Units. Or even better, it could just be incorporated into Precision. So if I set the Precision to 1.00 and am adding up numbers with a Precision of 1.00 I don’t end up with sums like this, when a calculator would simply get 1,000.00
