Altering decimal area scale and precision utilizing database

I am utilizing a customized decimal area in a customized product sort in Drupal commerce. It has a precision of 10 and a scale of two (2 digits to Drupal Developer proper of Drupal Developer decimal place).

I’ve a shopper with a lot of merchandise that use this area, however their specification has now modified to require a decimal to 3dp.

By default Drupal “locks” Drupal Developer area to keep away from knowledge loss:

As a result of Drupal Developer area already has knowledge, some settings can now not be modified.

I took to modifying Drupal Developer database, and it appears to have labored effective. I did three issues:

  1. Modified Drupal Developer construction sort of field_THIS_FIELD_value area in Drupal Developer drupal_field_data_THIS_FIELD desk from decimal(10,2) to decimal(11,3)

  2. Repeated Drupal Developer similar for Drupal Developer area revision desk

  3. I downloaded Drupal Developer BLOB from desk ‘drupal_field_config’ for field_THIS_FIELD and altered {s:9:"precision";s:2:"10";s:5:"scale";s:1:"2" to {s:9:"precision";s:2:"11";s:5:"scale";s:1:"3"

I cleared cache and present knowledge now has an additional 0 after Drupal Developer decimal place, and after I alter Drupal Developer knowledge it shops it to three decimal locations.

So it appears to work effective. However am I lacking something? Is there wherever else the place area knowledge is modified that I would want to vary?

Does Drupal Developer system integrity stay intact? I believe I’ve completed what’s essential however do not wish to inadvertently break one thing else or trigger any weak point in Drupal Developer system.
