Round off decimal places

KrishnaChithrathil

Can we make 2 decimal places to 6 decimal places without getting conversion errors in Alteryx?

Please find the screenshot below.

I tried it with select tool, fixed decimal, with size 19.6 but i'm getting conversion error like this.

Select (4) Field1: "1.019879991124576532" has too many digits after the decimal and was truncated.

Whatever be the value, it should have 6 decimal places.

 

 

Any help?

To can achieve this you can use Tostring function to format your digits as you want.

 

Here is the documentation about this function : Tostring function
