Thanks for your efforts on this Chad, You're getting the same kind of results that I did, which is of course to be expected.  I already tried all the workarounds you suggested, including this last one, none of which actually get rid of the issue. I can't change the field type because it's the Quckbooks Net Pay field.  ...

[quote user="Rolf"]Any suggestions on how to fix this?[/quote] One last approach, which might be the prefered solution, is to use 2 character functions followed by an enter value into field on screen - like this. The first action get's the position of the . The second action get's all the characters to the left of the . and ...

We want to start the Method job# creation as of the day customization is complete, and use it only for the new customers from here on. All previous info ...

[quote user="Rolf"]Any suggestions on how to fix this?[/quote] I'm just reviewing the money field type with 0 decimal places and will post back if there's an issue (or workaround). ~C

I have a field of type Money which I would like to restrict to whole $ amounts only, and have set the formatting option to 0 decimal places.  If I type in a whole number value, it works fine.  If, however,  I type in a value with a decimal point, then regardless of the actual decimal values, or how many decimal places I type in, ...

dottie, This is actually better handled through custom fields in QuickBooks.  Open any customer for editing the click into the Additional Info tab - there's section on the right hand side that says custom fields.  Click the define fields button and you'll get a popup to enter more information.  Call the field whatever you ...
