Need two decimal values for LAB assignment in swatch panel

I need to assign LAB values to swatches within Illustrator, which rely on two decimal values for exact brand specificity and absolute consistency with global print partners.

Currently - Illustrator is rounding these LAB values to the nearest whole number which won't allow for 100% consistency between art output from InDesign and Illustrator. It also disallows the same swatch being used within InDesign, since the Illustrator swatch creates it's own LAB values which are not in sync with the accurate, two-decimal InDesign LAB swatches. 

How can Illustrator be adjusted to allow for decimal values in LAB assignment, through the swatch panel interface? 

InDesign currently allows for this (two decimal values in LAB assignments) - I need Illustrator to allow for this so workflow and swatches between the two apps - but especially between print vendor & brand expectations can be 100% consistent with each other, and swatch alignment between Adobe apps can be accurate. 

TIA
