Symptoms

When you open a saved quote or order the values displayed for the total square feet and total linear

feet are not the same as when they are calculated while in Order Entry.


Cause

This is caused because currently SWCS saves the total square feet and total linear feet as whole

numbers in the database.


Workaround

There is no known workaround at this time.


Status

This issue was fixed in version 4.2.334.
