@deepa_bharadia to get a value to 2 decimal places you can change the data type to fixed decimal in the select tool to and set it to 19.2 or 11.2 depending on the size of the figures you have

So are you able to use the drop down feature for the datatype? because for 2 decimal places you want to use fixed decimal not double

Use a multi-field tool - it'll let you change the data type and size accordingly. 

 

If you need help, provide sample data.
