Intl gets this one wrong for storage
Intl.NumberFormat resolves YER to 0 fraction digits — CLDR’s display precision. The ISO 4217 exponent banks and processors store YER at is 2. Read the integer 123456 at Intl’s digits and it shows as 123,456; at the storage exponent it is 1,234.56. The library corrects this in one table, so every component formats YER at 2 decimal places.
YER in a statement
The same integer in every state a statement can be in. Null is not zero: unknown renders as a dash, never as a zero amount.
| Value | Stored (minor units) | Statement | Money component |
|---|---|---|---|
| Positive | 123456 | 1,234.56 | 1,234 Yemeni Rial and 56 minor units |
| Negative | -123456 | (1,234.56) | negative 1,234 Yemeni Rial and 56 minor units |
| Zero | 0 | 0.00 | 0 Yemeni Rial |
| Unknown (null) | null | — | not available |

Split without losing a minor unit
100.00 YER split three ways. Rounding each third leaves a remainder; largest-remainder allocation hands it out one minor unit at a time, so the parts always sum to the whole.

YER in React
The component reads the exponent from the currency code; you pass the integer and the code, never a float and never a decimal count.
import { Money } from "@/components/ledger/money";
// 1,234.56 YER, stored as the integer 123456
<Money accounting value={{ amount: 123456, currency: "YER" }} />Also stored at 2 decimal places
