Symptom
- Decimals formatting not respected when exporting a Table to PDF.
- When exporting a Table to PDF format in SAP Analytics Cloud, the generated PDF document does not reflect the number of decimal format specified for the Measures in the Table.
- For instance, if the Measure in the Table is set to display 2 decimals, the generated PDF document shows more than 2 decimals.
Environment
- SAP Analytics Clouds 2025.8.3
Reproducing the Issue
- Login to SAP Analytics Cloud.
- Create a Story, and add a Table, based on a Model with data that have Measure with many decimals.
- Format the Measure on the Table to display 2 decimals.
- Export the Table to PDF format.
- Open the generated PDF document, and notice the Measure in the Table displays more than 2 decimals.
Cause
- Exporting the data of a Table is designed to export the data only, and not the formatting.
- When exporting the data of a Table to PDF, it does not use the number of decimals that are formatted on the Table, it export the numbers directly from the original Data Model because the goal of the export is to provide the original data, and therefore this is why the exported values include more decimals and higher precision.
Resolution
- Workaround: Replace the Measures in the Table, by Calculated Measures that round the value to 2 decimals, or the desired number of decimals to display, like: ROUND(<Measure Name>,2)
