Why Are There Slight Data Differences on Cost Center Pages?
Cost Center calculates amortized costs up to the 8th decimal place. However, the amortized costs displayed on Cost Center pages are rounded off to the 2nd decimal place. Therefore, there may be slight differences between the cost summary and cost details.
Example: As shown in the figure below, Additional Pay-per-Use Cost in the cost summary is displayed as $258,507.64 USD, but the sum of additional pay-per-use costs in the cost details table is $258,507.65 USD (7.2+22+253572.01+4906.44), so there is a difference of $0.01 USD between the two.
Reason: The amortized costs are 7.20000000, 22.00000000, 253,572.00780912, and 4,906.43515552, each of which is accurate to the 8th decimal place. After being rounded off in the cost details table, they are displayed as 7.20, 22.00, 253,572.01, and 4,906.44, and are added up to 258,507.65.
In this case, the sum of Additional Pay-per-Use Cost is rounded off to the 2nd decimal place and displayed as 258,507.64.
