Transaction does not Balance when it should

[Patrick Ruckstuhl]

Hi,

I have the following transaction:

2014-01-13 * "Buy"
  Assets:Foo:BAR   45.8 BAR {{6739 CHF}}
  Assets:Foo:CHF         -6739 CHF

and I'm getting the error Transaction does not balance: (1E-24 CHF)

Is there any way (except of adding a "rounding error" account) to solve this?

It seems that what's happening is that the per share price is calculated and then there's rounding errors happening.

Thanks and Regards,
Patrick

I think if you use integer for the amount (6739 CHF), the precision will be unlimited. Try use a float like 6739.00 CHF
