Round to 5 decimal places

Paddi

Hi all,

 

I'm currently working on an issue to round the data to 5 decimal places. It is simple in excel, but I'm wondering how can it be done by alteryx.

The sample data has been attached. 

 

Thank you so much.

hey @Paddi 

you can use the formula below. 

 

Round(Round([YOUR NUMBER FIELD], .000001),.00001)

Please accept as solution if this worked for you!

 

Hope this helps!

Hi @Paddi 

 

Please find my solution below.

 

If I understand your requirement exactly, where you need to round of to 5 decimal places.

Especially 2.682103 need to be round for 2.68210

 

If you use just Round([Field1], .00001) will give the output as 2.6821 and not 2.68210 which you are expecting.

 

So one step in additional implanted to get your expected solution.
