I'm trying to use this expression to round money type to two decimal point.
=Format(Fields!ClosingBalance.Value,"#,##0.##")
The problem is I'm getting comma(,) in between, comma I do not want.
Also, 100.00 is showing 100. Here I want 100.00.
Please help
Try changing the format string to #.0,00. That will give you two fixed decimal digits. Your 'comma' is in the language settings. You can create your own culture though and assign it to the renderer.
If you don't want a comma, don't place one in the format string:
=Format(Fields!ClosingBalance.Value,"#.##")
If you want 100.00 instead of 100 the correct Format() is
=Format(Fields!ClosingBalance.Value,"0.00")
In format strings # means show character if non-zero and 0 means show character, zero included

I am in the process of outputting some results I get from some arrays in C in a nice table format, but I want to cut the value down to 2 digits past the decimal point.
Part of my table code looks something like this (some fake arguments just to get the point across).
printf("%15d %15f %15f\n", arr[i], arr2[i], arr3[i])
I want to trim some of my double variables down so a 55.583159 will just return 55.58 without having to get rid of the double data type. So essentially I'm looking for a way to keep "%15f" and also add into it a "%.2f" in a nice clean manor.
Any suggestions?
you can combine the output format, so if you want 15 digit width (%15f) and 2 places after the decimal (%.2f) you can use (%15.2f)
printf("%15d %15.2f %15.2f\n", arr[i], arr2[i], arr3[i])
this explains different formatting well
I do struggle with some of these conversions, so I do apologize, I have asked a similar question in the past, but just can't get my head around how to achieve this.
So a value of 50.00 is currently being exported into the following format -
000000000000050000
A value of 25.99 would look like
000000000000025990
This is a 18 character field where any leading characters are padded with a zero.
What I am trying to do is convert that to a 19 character string - still with leading zeros - but the value of 50 or 25.99 is slightly different -
000000000000050000 becomes 0000000000000005000
000000000000025990 becomes 0000000000000002599
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
You would appear to want:
select '00' + left(str, 17)
This is a very strange format. Perhaps you should consider using numeric/decimal, which can accurately represent the number.
A lot of assumptions go into this answer, but...
SELECT '00'+LEFT(OriginalField, 17)
That would truncate your original 18th character and simply put two more zero's on the front.
The solution is not so simple if you need to potentially round up the 17th character.
In C#, the decimal type 'remembers' the precision of the original number:
decimal.Parse("090,12300").ToString() == "90,12300"
decimal.Parse("090,123").ToString() == "90,123"
decimal.Parse("090,0").ToString() == "90,0"
decimal.Parse("90").ToString() == "90"
For business reasons (*), this precision is important for us, so we want persist this in the database (SqlServer). Is there an SQL-datatype (except varchar) that behaves in the same way as the c# decimal?
(*) The users want to see the exact number as entered in the application. For example: some scales are more precise than others. This means that 12.5 has another meaning than 12.50 in this scenario.
Use two columns, one for the value itself, and second one for number of digits after point.
What you will need is a function that format your value to string, with padding zero until enough number of digit.
I have been working on ADempiere these past few days and I am confused about something.
I created a new column on my database table named Other_Number with the reference type Quantity. Max length is 20.
On my Java source, I used BigDecimal.
Now every time I try to input exactly 20 digits on the Other_Number field, the last 4 digits gets rounded. Say if I input 12345678901234567891. When I try to save it, it becomes 12345678901234567000.
Other than that. All the records that gets saved on the database (PSQL) gets appended with ".000000000000" (that's 12 zeros).
Now I need to do something so that when I input 20 digits, the last 4 digits don't get rounded.
Also I need to get rid of that ".000000000000"
Can you please tell me why this is happening?
ADempiere as a financials ERP software is crucial in how it deals with financial amounts. In the database the exact BigDecimal value has to maintain its data integrity. Precision and rounding has been done as perfect as possible in code. Been part of the established famous project Compiere ERP, where iDempiere and Openbravo are also forks from, such financial amount management is already well defined and solved.
Perhaps you need to set precision in its appropriate window http://wiki.idempiere.org/en/Currency_%28Window_ID-115%29
If it's not actually a number you want but rather some kind of reference field that contains only numeric digits, change the definition in the Application Dictionary to be:
Reference: String
Length: 20
Value Format: 00000000000000000000 (i.e. 20 Zeros!)
This will force the input be numeric only (i.e. alpha characters will be ignored!) and because it is a String there will be no rounding
Adempiere will support upto 14(+5) digits (trillions) amount/quantity of business (USD currency).
What currency you are using, is it possible to use this much amount/quantity in ERP system ?
If you want to change the logic, then you can change logic at the getNumberFormat method of DispalyType.java class.
What was the business scenario?
In Adempiere java code "setScale" Method is used to rounded the value
Example:
BigDecimal len= value
len= len.setScale(2,4);
setLength(len);
I need to multiply a number which is like these 00000000001099 with 0.01 and then convert into two decimal places for e.g., 10.99 after multiplication in a derived column in SSIS package.
Right now I am using these expression (dt_numeric,2,2)((DT_CY)((dt_wstr,14)PRICE) * 0.01) but it is failing.
I get the column price with value 00000000001099 from a flat file after conversion I need to place the value back to a flat file again.
Since your string is 14 long you cannot use DT_I4 - it'll just figure out that this is very wrong and give you the error about potential loss of data. You could edit the error and ignore possible truncations, but a better way is to use a datatype that can hold your number
Your Derivation should look like this:
(DT_NUMERIC,X,2)((DT_NUMERIC,X+2,2)([InputColumn]))*0.01)
In your example
(DT_NUMERIC,14,2)(((DT_NUMERIC,16,2)([PRICE]))*0.01)
By using the extra step with x+2,2 makes you able to hold 99999999999999 into the numeric, then divide by 100 (or multiply with 0.01) and cast back to the minimum possible numeric (x,2) - you might want to use a bigger standardized numeric type - look at MSDN/BOL to see the storage requirements for each of them, and just pick the biggest type taking the same amount of bytes as your requirement.
This should work...
(DT_DECIMAL, 2 )(DT_WSTR, 20 )((DT_I4)#[User::Cost] * 0.01)
While the value 00000000001099 is a number, it cannot be represented this way in a numeric datatype. The leading zeros will be stripped. Because you are showing this number this way, I must presume the number is stored in a string datatype. In the dataflow before your derived column I would recommend the use of the "Data Conversion" component. Convert the string to a numeric type. In the downstream derived column component perform the mathematical multiplcation operation to get the decimal point in the correct place.
