Hello! I have a calculated field where I am adding 3 fields and dividing by the sum of 2 others. I'd like to round the result to 2 decimal points. I added in the Round formula but it only seemed to round to the nearest whole number. What am I missing? Thanks! Lisa Lisa Ramsden Enabling Solutions

Without seeing your actual calculated field, I think you may have forgotten to add how many decimals you want to have in the ROUND equation. See sample text below. This will add 2 decimal places to your equation. ROUND(DIV(Test Field A,Test Field B) ,2) Terry Hynd EBSCO Information Services

Thank you. Here is my formula: ROUND(DIV(SUM({Impact to Customer Experience?}*.30,{Impact to Employee Experience?}*.20,{Financial Benefit?}*.50),SUM({Financial Investment?}*.60,{Estimated Project Duration?}*.40),2))) I did try adding the number of decimal places, but it is still rounding to the nearest whole number. It took something that was 1.18291942 and made it 1. Appreciate the insight! Lisa Lisa Ramsden Enabling Solutions

To me it looks like there's an extra right-paren and one might need to move. I'd try this: ROUND ( DIV ( SUM ( {Impact to Customer Experience?}*.30,{Impact to Employee Experience?}*.20,{Financial Benefit?}*.50 ) ,SUM ( {Financial Investment?}*.60,{Estimated Project Duration?}*.40 )) ,2 )
