OData Conversion of Unit Quantity

Hi Everyone,

This link SAP NetWeaver Gateway 2.0 - Known Constraints | FAQ ERP | ERP Champs states the following:

Unit Quantity

• The gateway framework provides a default conversion of unit quantity without rounding and based on the customizing for the currently used unit-of-measurement in DB table T006 (field ANDEC and DECAN). The default conversion takes care of the following 4 rules:
• Output is the same as input if the unit-of-measurement is not customized in DB table T006.
• No decimal digits lost if not zero
• Delete zero's if input decimals > max(ANDEC,DECAN)
• Output is the same as input if input decimals < max(ANDEC,DECAN) because DDIC should also have higher priority!

I want my field to be the number of decimal places in DECAN regardless of the value in ANDEC. Is there any way to change this for an OData service?

Otherwise I am seeing the only solution to format in the backend and pass the value as a string instead of a decimal. Not sure what impact this will have on sorting, filtering etc.

Thanks in advance.
