How can I change back the company`s currency decimal places I get the message: 

You cannot reduce the number of decimal places of a currency already used on an accounting entry.

But after the change to 4 digits there was no new accounting entry


Thanks in advance

If it's just a warning, it will still allow you to reduce the number of decimals in the Settings > Technical > Database Structure > Decimal Accuracy.
When you reduce the decimal places, after showing that warning, it will still save the latest decimal points that you are giving.

We tried that yesterday already but it was not successfull. Any other suggestions? 



We cannot change it: 

Invalid Operation

You cannot reduce the number of decimal places of a currency which has already been used to make accounting entries.


That is the reason for our question

Hallo topic opener,


I have the same question, have you found a solution for this problem?


Thank you

no, we haven`t found a solution therefore we loaded an old backup...

Potentially unsafe and requires thoughtful testing, but you could reset the decimal places in the database itself in case you're sure no new entries have been posted.
Also, the error message is not about the new decimal places being used in an entry, but the currency it self - even if this has been prior to your change only.

You can manage decimal precision settings in Odoo through the following steps:

  1. Navigate to:
    Settings > Technical > Database Structure > Decimal Accuracy
  2. In this menu, you’ll find a list of all the decimal precision configurations used across your system.
  3. To modify the precision for product costs and prices, look for the entry named "Product Price".
  4. Edit the "Digits" field to set the desired number of decimal places.

🔔 Note:

Changing the "Product Price" precision affects all documents where product price, cost, or sales price is shown.

However, existing data will not be updated retroactively—only new entries and transactions will reflect the updated precision.

Hope this helps!

Your screenshot even says you can't do that.
