Keying in macros for IIFYM

Hey Fitfam! I'm not sure if this question has been asked before. I couldn't find it though.

How do I key in the exact macros into MFP? MFP shows them in % but they don't match the numbers I get from the IIFYM calculator. Someone told me there's a plug-in that allows me to tweak it but i can't seem to find it anywhere.

Help.

    Just work out the percentage IIFYM gave you then enter in, 'home', 'goals', 'change goals', 'custom'. :)

    Yeah, I've tried that but MFP shows % in denominations of 5s. So its either 50% (which is higher than my required macros) or 45% (which is lower than my required macros). Is that how its suppose to be then? I mean can I be flexible like that?

    came here looking for the same thing! I need numbers to be exact and it's not happening.
