2395845 - Key Figure Rounding - Wrong Decimal Value in Reports

Symptom

You have created a customized key figure with the setting Calculate Result As: Summation Of Rounded Values. The reason for this is that the values in your key figure have many decimals but you only want to display a few. You want the result line to show a summation of rounded values. However when you open the report, you notice that the value in the result line does not match the sum of rounded values.

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open the report from the assigned work center.
  2. Run the report and check the values in your customized key figure.
  3. The key figure does not show all decimals but rounded vaues.
  4. The result line for this key figure does not match the separate values.

Cause

The key figure setting Calculate Result As: Summation Of Rounded Values only applies when a scaling factor is set. This is also documented in the help center, chapter Key Figures > Local Calculation.

Resolution

Unfortunately it is currently not possible to set the result line to display rounded values according to the displayed rounded numbers. The result line is always calculated based on the actual values.
