A rounding off will occur in the UI according to length of the decimal precision specified in the "Configure object definition".

This is working as designed. When exceeding the length of the decimal precision, a rounding off will occur in the UI according to length of the decimal precision specified in the "Configure object definition".

Note:

Decimal precision has a built-in-logic that doesn't consider non-significant numbers like "zero". For example, Decimal Precision entered is 2 and the value entered is on the field is 4.70, the system will automatically eliminate the zero and make it 4.7.
