PrecisionValues

This business rule defines the number of digits allowed after the decimal point when displaying UnitValues. The precision can be configured based on a client's need to show the proper unit value. This rule can be used to calculate the units precision at Accumulation and Benefit level by attaching this business rule to the transactions that affect Benefit. These values are ultimately stored as units in AsValuation and AsBenefitSplit tables. If this business rule is not in place, the system reverts to its default setting of ten decimal places.

As of the 9.5.0.0 release, this business rule absorbed the UnitValuePrecision rule functionality and the UnitValuePrecision rule was deprecated.
