Data Dictionary Data Item Class Change?

The Class QTYINV in our system has a default display decimal value of 4. That is causing issues with forcasting values. We are thinking of creating a new Class called QTYINV2 and display decimals of 0 and adding only ONE data item to this that is FQT. I asked JDE about this and was told they do not support such a change at all. Now I am asking everyone here what they think. Any bad things that will happen because of this? Any information / ideas would be great!!

Nick, to my knowledge a class exists in the data dictionary because all
items in that class are supposed to have the same display decimals. If you
took one item out from that class (or attributed one table column a
different dd-item) you would break that system.

This time I agree with JDE response line: I would not do that!

Ya I am kind of thinking that too, but I don't see what what the harm could be if I copy the QTYINV class....
