John,

Sorry I guess I misunderstood your suggestion wrong.

What's throwing me off is that setting up a non-currency commodity isn't going to help as I see it. Quantity is not a commodity. It is the multiplier of one.

A line-item on an invoice is always some multiplier of a currency.

The OPs use case is trying to set the multiplier more accurately than 2 decimal places allow. (the invoice lets you do so, but the invoice report doesn't show this precision, though it retains the proper line-item total.)

Regards,
Adrien

Not a currency: Currency smallest fractions are set by law in the currency's 
issuing country, the ISO4217 committee maintains a list, and GnuCash follows 
that list. Non-currency commodities are more user-configurable via the Security 
editor, though you'll make yourself crazy if you set something different from 
what fraction actually trades for securities. For commodities that aren't 
securities or currencies it may make sense to set some other fraction, as in 
the example of the user selling subscriptions denominated in years who wants a 
fraction of 1/12.
