Export timsheet .csv; conversion rate from hours to days is variable

Hello,
When I export to .csv from the timesheet field (all resources / all weeks) the output is a file with a work column and a cost column, as below
Example: (not including the last column that I have added and calculated)

id          resource  project      type of item    element id     name              assignment       work d    date cost             unit cost
20378    EB          O_01_x    Activity           170                3_Task 1         498                   0,03       28/02/202            369,3333333
20377    EB          R_15_z    Activity            363               Task3              1938                 0,47        02/03/2023          339,4680851
20376    EB          R_08_y    Activity           1750               2_Task4         1948                  0,07       02/03/2023           316,5714286

When I want to check the unit cost by dividing the cost by work, I should always have the same amount for each person, their hourly/daily rate on the same day shouldn't change; and yet, it does, as you can see.

In our system:
- the daily work hours cover a range of 8 hours with a pause in the middle
- the Unit for timesheet is set to hours
- the unit for workload is set to hours
- the number of hours per day is set to 7.6

I found in the Manuel a warning here: manual.projeqtor.org/html_en/GlobalParam...y-work-hours-section  (scroll to the Units for Work warning) that something could affect the rounding, but I sincerely don't understand what "both" is referring to and if this is what is impacting my exported values.

and yet, the conversion is sometimes 7.6, sometimes 7.5, sometimes something else, and I can't find an easy rounding error to rebuild the initial values.

Could anyone help me to understand why the conversion from hours to days is inconsistent? And how do we fix it so that on the export we have a consistent, reliable and steady conversion?

Alternatively, is there any other way of exporting the whole database directly in hours instead of days?

Many thanks for any pointers.

Not so sure. Resources may have different "cost".

- the daily work hours cover a range of 8 hours with a pause in the middle

Is not important here, is used only to calculate open hours delays

- the Unit for timesheet is set to hours
- the unit for workload is set to hours
- the number of hours per day is set to 7.6
the conversion is sometimes 7.6, sometimes 7.5

Conversion should always be 7.6 as defined.
Issue is due to rounding at 2 digits of the export.
We'll have a look to improve this.

Hi,
Thanks for this reply; is there any other way of exporting this information, rounding to at least 4 decimal points? (considering we can input hours to 2 decimal points, the conversion to days should at least be 4 decimals).

or could it just export in the format entered? ie in hours instead of days?

Rounding removed on V10.2.3
