Just out of curiosity, why even bother with microcents if we can't post budget amounts with them in it?

Campaign Seattle has a new budget of 70340001 from 91320000

I mean, really.. 1 microcent is going to cause this issue. If you're only going to allow amounts accurate to a hundredth of a dollar, why not make budget amounts in cents?

Sincerely Confused,

John Hamilton

Sorry if I sound angry. I'm not. It's just been a long day, and everything was going OK until this little microcent thing. ;)

Hi John,

My understanding about micros is that they were chosen to keep the API
independent of the currency system. But the server also expects the
micro values to be properly converted into the account's currency when
converted back from micro units. For instance, 1 USD is 100 cents and
since 1 USD = 1M micros, 1 cent is 10000 micros. So the system expects
your micro values to be multiples of 10000.

Hope this helps.

Cheers,
