hehe, so it's saying 45.15 k kWh (thousand kiloWatt hours). 45 MWhours? Great Scot!
Yes, you can fix this and you probably should think about the graphs as you do this as well. Since the raw value is in 10ths, you should consider either modifying the existing datapoint or creating a new complex datapoint that converts from tenths of a kWh to Wh. That way the actual number is stored and both the graph and report will automatically scale (along SI units). So the actual value that gets stored would be 45154200, which is in Watt-hours. When the reporting system and the graphing system go to display them, they will automatically scale up to MWh.
