I only do automatic lot specification so I'm not sure on the best approach

Neither of these really seem like plausible alternatives. When I submit a 
buy execution to my broker it gets filled like this:

2020-03-12 * "SMLF" #20200228-tlh-rzv
  Assets:US:Interactive-Brokers        1000 SMLF {31.4550 USD, 2020-03-12} 
@ 31.455 USD
  Assets:US:Interactive-Brokers         400 SMLF {30.5350 USD, 2020-03-12} 
@ 30.535 USD


Ah yes, I’d completely forgotten about this, which my transactions are full 
of as well. Yet another reason @@ doesn’t work.

On a different note, how do you get 4 decimal points with Interactive 
Brokers? Looking at my journal, I seem to get two through their flexquery 
downloads.
 

FWIW, I've never had my broker display different per-unit pricing in 
different reports. It is conceivable Vanguard does but (at least until 
their big push for better IT in the early 2000s) they historically had the 
worst IT infrastructure among major brokers by a fair margin so I'd expect 
it to be limited to them.


I wish I could say this were true. Take Fidelity whose IT infra hasn’t had 
the complaints that Vanguard has had. Until recently, they provided ofx, 
csv, and web display (ofx is gone now). Ofx had 5 digits, while csv/web has 
always had two.
